Any Low pressure turbo head with VVT should work-This means XCs, GLTs and LPT C70s. Use the VIN code to help: characters 7 and 8 should be 56 ex: YV1NC56xxxxxx where YV1=Volvo, NC =C70conv. 56 = LPT motor. after that come emissions and serial numbers. I expect 1999-2000 perhaps newer as well. From what I've heard, the head is the same for the N/A cars as well, the compression difference is in the bottom end. If so, any non HPT, single-VVT head should work. edit: basic heads are the same, differences turbo heads use sodium filled exhaust valves. cams are different between variants. If you just need the core head, it looks like your choices open up to any single VVT head.
Current Volvos:
1998 V70 T5, 112k sat 5 years, still in mechanical coma (finally at the top of the pile )
2004 XC90 T6 AWD: 186k, 60 on transaxle ( traded in )
1998 POS70 N/A: DD/training aid, 236k but really about 240k, I think...ABS module( passed on to son who sold it)

Non turbo heads have no VVT in 99 and have VVT on intake (not exhaust) in 2000 and above so beware.
