HISTORIC PHOTO - 1983 B23ET Looking closely at this 1983 European 760 B23ET Volvo Turbo display engine you might notice features not found on later USA (B23FT), or Australian (B23ET) 760/740 models. Attached to manifold
throttle body is a round cast
'air
inlet hat' - this
first featured on the non intercooled 1981-83 240 B21
ET/FT engines; Notice the intercooler with
metal
end tanks instead of
plastic; A compressor relief
valve vent-pipe
located just after
the intercooler that
leads back to turbo compressor inlet; This early model
featured Motronic L-Jet EFI. Manual gearbox in the picture is Volvo M45 for show purposes. Production turbo models used a beefed up M46 with 'D' Laycock overdrive. |
