Re: [DML] Engine, Volvo 260 or 760

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxx>]

760 switched to B280 block in 1987. Major internal differences --
don't know if heads, valve train, etc unchanged from B28. Totally
different fuel delivery (L-Jetronic?)

Not all 260/760 series run PRV's either.

Have 2 xRef's I use at parts houses: 1980 260 and 1985 760. Covers B27
and B28. Can usually find something to fit.

DeLo specific parts of course easiest from vendors. And some xRef
items are cheaper from vendors too (injector seals/clips for example).
