I sold my red v70 5sp in February. Only driving my 03 accord ex v6 with the rare 6sp. Beginning to obsess about doing a 745 non-turbo project. Gotta find the engine and the car. I want to completely rebuild a redblock and pair it with a 6sp. Looking for 500hp. Does anyone know of any 6sp manual that is compatible or close enough to make compatible?

I THINK that I read about a common 6 speed swap into a 2/7/9 series Volvo on that Australian forum. Something.oz. Can't recall...

Good luck though!

Is 500 HP even possible with 4 cylinder Red Block without forced induction or NOS? Maybe at 8000 RPM and Cubic $$$.

Right. I think a full blast 2-liter screaming race engine would have a hard time doing that at high rpm, and probably not a big bearing red block.
