I had a chat with him on Facebook. He is starting off with a 2006 S60R. His electrical, electronics and software should be pretty much plug and play. I told him where to find MVS and Yagger if he runs into a problem.

The B5254t4 is shot. Sometime between when I got it and how, it went to full lock up. Most likely the Antifreeze in the crankcase rusted everything in the lower end.

The original 2.5L is now locked up, I could turn it over when I got it.

If you look above I was think of salvaging the internals in case somebody wanted them. Pistons new are $160.00 each. Connecting rods new are $200.00 each.
