Completely self financed and built with exception to paint and block machining. One of the quickest privateer built Volvo�s in the country! First OHC Volvo motor with a ford T5 transmission and Proturbo�s first US customer. Best time to date, 13.6 @ 106 with a 2.5 second 60� time. VERY tractionally limited. 14PSI for those passes.
