- ►On this episode of - The 850 Project- The built RN engine and C70 Convertible subframe are installed in the 850, and we dive into everything that is wiring as we convert our OBD1 LH3.2 car to run on M4.4 with coil packs and variable valve timing. After studying wiring diagrams, multiple phone calls with Aaron from VASTTUNING, hours of wiring hell, and troubleshooting, we finally turn the key and see if it all works.

lol. I was laughing pretty good when he said starting it up was scary. I know what you mean.
The first start is always nerve-racking, glad to hear you can relate, Eric!
I feel You Guys. I have reassembled few volvo engines and it doesn't really matter how much work You have put in until it all comes down to that moment when You start the angine and it starts .... it's that afterglow :D
The first start definitely is a special moment indeed, Raimonds!
Oh yeah, that engine sounds good. Now for the suspension and tyres to get that BTCC racing stance...yummy!
You wont be dissapointed :-)
Congratulations team FCP 👍
Thank you, Darrin! 🦾
Favourite TH-cam series ever
Man I’m all good until next Friday.
Thanks for sharing,
Have a wonderful day guys, keep up the good work!
Happy to hear we satisfied, Terry! Thanks for following along and see you next Friday!
@@fcpeuro you’re more than welcome
Currently enjoying this build project episode I think the audio is really good whatever you're doing great sounding engine
Thank you, Sam! Glad to hear you are enjoying the project! It will only sound better once we get this thing dialed in!
The production quality of this project is very good. Ironic, given that you lost the engine installation.
Keep it up!
Thank you, Stephen, we try our best! We are definitely upset about the lost footage, but mistakes happen, hope you still enjoyed the episode at least!
I bought a 2003 V70 today! 96k, 3750.00 it is immaculate! Not a turb but I will upgrade the suspension, then Maybe consider a +t or total swap. These wagons are highly underated!
congrats
@@reallyhappenings5597 Thank you! This is my 5th Volvo, but first wagon.
Congratulations on your first wagon!
Can't wait to hear and see this thing out ripping on the Track!
Oh, trust us, FlyingPigsRacing, we can't wait for that either!! Thanks for watching!
Great job... just ordered that injection relay and pump relay from you guys. Ben fighting a no random no start on my 850R.. 360,000 miles on her...
hey try checking the crank sensor
Great project 😍
Awesome build, real glad this worked out for you guys
Thanks, B Gee! Still a lot of work to do, but we're happy to bring you along for the ride!
Congratulations, big smile on my face. See you in the next one
Thanks, Ryan! Happy we can put a smile on your face 😁. See you next Friday!
dude aaron is legendary. I wish there was a p2 tuner in the community that was as cool as him, responded as fast, and had such repetitive quality work. Best thing we have is steveo and he's prone to disappear for a year :( Hilton gave me bad info on the first email so I'm considering shark.
Contrast Works is specialized in p2's and had a good rep, he's developing a cnc intake right now
@@UrbanMelon I always hear of Gustav but never see any website or contact info, hard to find, which makes him a bit unreliable in my view
I have the cop from vast and from your video I can't understand why I don't have spark?
I knew exactly what was going on when it wouldn't crank. I remember doing the manual swap, and trying to start it before doing something I can't remember with a green wire.
Those dang park/neutral safety locks!😂 Which car did you manual swap, Sean?
@@fcpeuro an 850r and an 850 turbo.
ohh yes, we need to see where this is going, good hearing it chough at least
Hey, a chough is a start, right? 😂 Thanks for following along
Ståle!
@@fcpeuro this makes me wanna get my project running ;)
@@Stale_Mahoney No better time than now!
@@fcpeuro except having to buy a house as well this year i do agree... ); xD
I knew as soon as i didnt see the fuel injector relay something was wrong lol. Been a issue with my car since the plastic connect broke and having to connect the wires directly to the relay. Wish i had a junkyard here.
It was definitely an "Aha!" moment for us!
I love every part of this build; except butt connectors on an engine harness... what the actual hell?! This isn’t a car stereo install.
why do not you use the straight intake from the v70n
Aaron is awesome, really sharp.
Aaron certainly is a wizard when it comes to these cars! He has been super helpful!
Can you guys give us info on the head? What valves and cams are in there?
Hi, Drew! The cylinder head has been CNC ported, the cams are ENEM Y21 (264's, 9.6 lift) and intake valves are Manley oversized (unsure of the exact specs on the valves). We purchased a wrecked car with this engine already built. Curious to see how it does in its current state, but we definitely have some plans for improvements in the future!
Engine sounds BIIIG
Gotta love that 5-cylinder growl, Marco!
@@fcpeuro you’d bet! I’m a happy owner of a ‘95 850 GLE and even the smallest and less noisy of the 5cyl family makes me smile when it’s revving between the 3 to 4.5k, wonderful engines, and they can go on and on... Old Volvos are really something special! Looking forward for your next video of the series, keep up the good work! 💪🏻
3:03. Is it really a harness...or do people call it a loom?
Harness (or wiring hraness) is the typical term for the wiring, loom (or wire loom) is what the wires are fed through to group them together, typically a corrugated flexible plastic, hopefully you're never unfortunate enough to run into someone whose used hockey tape
What is the "R" part of this engine?
"Revised"
Nicely done ... but that purple cover has got to go 😭
Oh, don't worry, those purple covers didn't stay on!
Could’ve sworn they were OBD2 cars?
Not all of them! Although you are probably more likely to find an OBD2 car than these early OBD1 cars.
@@fcpeuro makes sense considering the one I have is a 96
please activate subtitles for the next video
pretty rookie move not getting pnp continuity. Wouldn't expect that from a gray hair.
What's the color code?
Hi, Naber. Our 850 should be 412
Green-Blue Metallic.
Just curious why you didn't go stand alone?
We wanted to stay as true to a kitbashed Volvo as possible. That said a standalone is not out of question for a future iteration!
Lost footage, thats terrible!!
