Check out this great shop in Portland OR....Swedish Relics. He's one of the NW Volvo guys who's been doing it a long time. They do some beautiful work, and sweet engines. He helped author a lot of those tech articles on V Classics (http://www.vclassics.com/archive/index.html).

They are also the keeper of the engine mod recipes from Phil Singher, who is well known for his cylinder heads and engine builds.

Super mega clean work.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!
