Sorry, no mention made of the head gasket.
I'm sure some of us would be interested in knowing the diameter, height
and gudgeon/wrist pin diameter, etc, of these Volvo pistons, if anyone
can provide this information without going to any great trouble.

the inlet valves are described as "Rover SD1 2300cc inlet valves,
turned down to 1.6 inches, exhaust valves are the stock Holbay..";
the head is "Flowed and ported by Oselli Engineering";
"Jeff Howe 300 degree cam giving 0.335 inch lift"
the H120 in the magazine looks pretty cool,
in white with red flash and Ford "Rostyle wheels"
p.s. I managed to get some welding done last night:
I'm just about on schedule for a late Summer 1998 completion.
