Engine Transplant

[beanie d 83]

Hello all, I'm looking to drop a Volvo 480 Turbo lump into a Mk 1 (Phase 1) Clio. Was just wondering if anyone out there has already done this or knows anything that might be able to give me some pointers! Cheers people!!

I've seen video footage of Clio 'Valver' with a Volvo turbo lump in it. No idea what exact engine it was but it was very quick and looked a lot of fun Ask on Cliosport.net perhaps, thats where I heard about it several years ago.

Good luck with the project.

I noticed this same thread in the Volvo section, one of the responses made me chuckle, "I'd rather have a 480 than a stty Mk 1 Clio".

May be a slightly different opinion in this part of the forum
