Gentlemen,

Can anybody help an English owner of a P1800E, on where I might still be
able to purchase brand new rockers and shaft for a B20 engine? My present
supplier's cannot help me. I've tried messing around the internet, but still
I'm having trouble tapping, no pun intended, into finding them.

Can you also tell me where I might be able to find a reconditioned engine
for a B20 for the above model. I've had two prices so far, one for £1350,
and another for £1400. If it comes to it I shall have to buy one of these,
but will be annoyed with myself if I learn later on I could have got one
cheaper elsewhere. I'm not a club member.

Regards,

Maurice

1800 specialty suppliers in U.S.:

Foreign Autotech  215-794-9750 http://www.volvo-1800.com/
Don Thibault  (508) 888-9715   http://www.p1800.com/

all volvo models:

IPD 800-444-6473   www.ipdusa.com

All of above are very knowledgeable.  Call them.  These are good choices to
get hard-to-find parts, and they are willing to tell you where to go if they
don't carry what you need.

tried the Dutch Volvo scene? Many suppliers here have sites in English
too
Try Googling on  Volvo , onderdelen (=parts) & klassiek

Thanks Marten. It's looking like Volvo have stopped making this particular
part, so I shall have to do with what I've got at the moment. I did try the
sites in the States, but they are having the same problem, as well as my own
suppliers, in getting this part.
