Volvo AQ100 V6 swap

V

V8Power

New member
I've got an AQ100 with a B18. It's kinda underpowered and I'm a big fan of swapping either a Buick 3800 or Chevy V6. I've seen that the Volvo AQ270 GM bellhousing could fit. The round clamping part of the mount looks like it could fit.
Is there any info on actual fitment?
It wouldnt be a problem to make a new shaft, exhaust and all that stuff

Several issues....
1) I4 engine and V6 have drastically different front end mounting schemes..
2) I4 and V6 engines have different final reduction gear requirements, i.e. can't use the same "leg" ( at least the bottom 1/3)
3) Which series drive do you have now??? i.e. 280 vs 260 etc...
