To Chris,
The later PRV's are of the even fire design, the earlier type is an odd-fire.
This is to do with the crank-shaft design. The V6 PRV was derived from the initial
design of the V8 but chopped 2 cylinders off.
I could give you the Bosch tech info for the later fuel injection if you like (off the
top of my head I think it is the LH Jetronic)
If it was me I would investigate the original engine but if yuo have a good running earlier type then just transplant the whole unit including fuel injection etc.
Good luck with the project.

Dear list.....one for you Techy's!!
I'm looking at a Petrol /LPG Volvo, v6, 1990. Unfortunately the engine
has done about 150K miles and uses water. The engine if full of
chocolate moose, so obviously we have a leaking head gasket or similar.
But what interests me if the recently fitted LPG conversion. As it's a
latish engine, it does not have K jetronic, but a later fuel injection
system. I do have a very good spare earlier Volvo engine. And could
combine the two.
Do you think I could modify the fir intake / manifolds to get the LPG/
petrol working?
The tank would fit behind the seats, or I could fit a new donut one in
the spare wheel well.
Best regards
