Hi folks I came across this list while searching for info on rebulding a PRV V6 and, noticing that there is a huuuge number of members here, I'm hoping someone might be able to help or at least point me in the direction of a source of help. I'm in the process of a full rebuild on a 2.8litre V6 out of a '86 Volvo 760. I realise that the car isn't even close to a DeLorean, but I gather that the engines are virtually identical. I'm at the point of choosing the correct thickness of seals for the base of the cylinder sleeves. Seals are available in various thicknesses in order to set the correct sleeve protusion height above the block. Without seals fitted the top of each sleeve is absolutely level with the top of the block. According to the repair manual I own the recommended protrusion above the block is 0.16 to 0.23mm (0.0063 to 0.0091 inch), preferably going for the higher value. The problem is that the thickest seal available is listed as "0.130 to 0.165 mm (0.0051 to 0.0065 inch)". That's barely thick enough to meet even the minimum height requirement. So now I'm wondering whether the height is so critical (so long as all the sleeves on each bank are equal), or whether its ok to use two thinner seals on each sleeve to achieve the correct dimension (the manual states that this is a no-no). Volvo dealers have been no help at all (surprise, surprise) and I haven't yet been able to find anyone else who has knowledge of these engines. Anybody come across this situation before? Any and all advice will be gratefully received. Help! Cheers Steve Abbott (Tasmania, Australia)
