I have an ignition module and a set of exhaust manifolds off of a 4500 mile engine I am looking to sell. I will get pictures posted up later.
I am asking $1175 OBO for the ignition module
I am asking $400 OBO for the exhaust manifolds.
I also have the factory ignition coils and the DIS module that they mount to but not sure what they are worth. I am switching to megasquirt and will be running LS coils so I will not be using any of the factory ignition components for my engine swap.

I bought his ECM for $1050 and it worked perfect. Bill is an excellent seller with fast shipping and has some legit low mile parts.

Nope not kidding.
Why not?
That’s the thing about people in this country of ours. There’s no required protocol to limit how we want to make it “your own”. You can’t do that everywhere. I say go for it!

That’s right, it’s a free country, for the time being anyway. To each his own. Keep us posted should be interesting.

I always love sleepers like that. You will have an exotic one. Steve McQueen was famous for these. Here's an excerpt of an article from Petrolicious:
Volvo Wagons With Attitude
Newman’s first dabble in making a frighteningly fast Volvo was when he reportedly had a 740 Wagon fitted with the turbocharged V6 engine from a Buick Grand National, a conversion that pops up for sale from time to time but is said to have been the actor’s daily driver for quite some time.
If you’ve seen the episode of Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee featuring David Letterman, you’re well aware of this next sleeper car idea that was brought to life by Newman: instead of a turbocharged V6 engine, why not a big V8?
When Newman decided to have a 380 horsepower Ford Racing V8 engine—topped with a Kenne Bell supercharger—fitted to his Volvo 960 Wagon, he famously called Letterman and asked if the Late Night host would like one of his own built. Paul Newman: Best Friend Ever?
The result was an extreme sleeper car, one that made it possible to lay waste Chevrolet Corvette drivers and slip under the gaze of law enforcement at the same time. Jerry Seinfeld and Letterman agreed that it fit Newman’s “sense of humor”.
Now, there are dozens of similar conversions, which means that thanks to Newman, we now have many V8-fitted Volvos to choose from.
So you're in good company--Bob

Interesting swap, please keep us up to date. I assume there is enough width for the LT5 in the engine bay. I have a 1991 240 as my daily driver so this swap is particularly interesting to me.

rb26 that 240!

It will probably fit in a 240 but it will be a little tighter as it has a smaller engine bay. However the 240 has a stronger rear suspension.

Bump. Updated pricing.
