[DMCForum] Re: Diesel-to-DeLorean transmission mating

["cruznmd" <racuti1@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

According to this link:

http://www.vlvworld.com/indexframe.html?200/Production260.htm

The 260 Volvo is indeed identical to the PRV6 powered version, 
meaning things -may- bolt up. Just one tiny little problem-

The D24 is an in-line 6 and would probably be too long to jam into 
the DeLo's engine compartment without seriously hacking things up. :(
I'd need engine dimensions to know for sure.

Anyone know the engine designation for Peugeot 505's diesel engine?
