The early S80T6 block adapts well to the 960 head by using the S80T6 head gasket.

After doing this all the go-fast gear like forged aftermarket conrods and pistons from any S70 T5 will bolt on as the S80T6 shares bore and stroke with them. You can sleeve the S80T6 block with Darton sleeves for a T5 then you can get some serious turbo hardware and large boost numbers running :D
