I'am Andries Hofstra from Holland.
And i live in the Northen city of Assen.
And i have to say that you guys have a great site.
keep up the good work.

The site of volvo 300 club isn't that nitly put together.
Its even the the best volvo looking 300 site i ,ve come across.


I'am the proud owner of a 1990 volvo 340 GL CVT.
The body work has just been restored and is now (almost) spotless.
At the moment is the car stored in my garage.
Because there too much salt on the roads at the moment.
Being winter time and all.

And i'll put a brand new engine in it in the Autum.
Because the Org.B14.4e has a burnt valve.

The replasement at first was a r5 Alpine engine that came out an Daf66 rallycar.
But after comparing whit the std. engine ill go for an other solution.
Becoase the torc isn't enough for a 340.
Alpine 93 hp/6400rpm 115 nm /4000 rpm
Std B14-4e 71hp/5500rpm 108nm/3400
But the std.B14 is still a good engine to tune.
new bearings and piston rings.
A fast camshaft
Bleuprinted Crankshaft completely balansed out.
With flywheel and
Tuned cilinderhead.(Grinded inletcanals)
A bit higer compr. 10,5:1
Oldfasion pionts ignition in combi. with camshaft.
For more advance ignition so more torc.
maybe a DCOE weber to complete the job.
After the "running in"

And i can stil use a lot of parts from the Alpine engine.

I also need to make other mods that make my volvo more "sporty".
Like brakes and suspention.
But the extereur wil remian mosty the same.
(For trafic-light suprises

happy driving and greetings from holland.
