Sure you can!

But you will have to spend 100 times more then what the car is worth, then the S60 might not make it up the hill, like it used to.

To me this is like putting a lawnmower motor on a sports bike.

You need to stop allowing your customer wasting your time with none factory repair and no close end questions.

"Can I put Y made in Z model car? No.

"Can I turbo my n/a S80?" No.

"How many miles can an engine run?" With maintenance? 300k is easy. With no maintenance? 20k if lucky.

Lol do you really need a sounding board for such ridiculous questions? Listen to tryingbe and start turning away these customers.

I think he was a sophisticated (human not bot) spammer.

I banned him and removed sneaky links.
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!
