🚀Joel "Doc" Glasson has built a really cool rocket of a Volvo 140. Here he shares some of the story while I rip roar around the town of Gettysburg, with photos from his facebook of the work that went into it these few past years. I'm so glad he got to make it out to the Volvo Club of America VCOA National Meet with this 142. Thanks to friend and Patron Colville for recording this.

Some specs: +0.060 overbore B20 built by Vintage Performance Developments (VPD)
Forged pistons, zero deck height with the 0.032" head gasket achieving a 10.5:1 compression ratio
VPD Stage 2 ported and polished head, 45mm intake, 36mm exhaust valves
Double valve springs with a hot cam
Megasquirt 2 fuel and spark management with Ford EDIS-4 ignition coils getting input from a 36-tooth-minus-1 VR-sensed crankshaft pulley.
