Question
Hello,

Among my volvos I own a 1981 Turbo 2.1 B21ET Engine.
The car is ok but I would like to fit in an intercooler.

I have a complete one that is coming fron a 740 turbo 8 valve I also have the turbine from this car.

The question is if this spare will be adaptable on my one, (Ialso have pwersteering and airconditioning...) and if there is any place where I can find some picture or graphics regarding the original intercooler mounted on the 244.

Thanks in advance  

Answer
I'm certain you can use the intercooler setup in your 81, the only thing you'll need to do is reroute some of the air ducking to fit your setup, not a huge deal, just some minor fabrication.  The function of the system will be the same, though.  To get more detailed instructions and pictures, I would go to www.turbobrick.com, a site dedicated to turbo Volvo 240's.  You'll find everything you need there.  Good luck!
