Motor Swap ? volvo v8

[robjen1019]

I have a 1987 volvo 225, which is a 305 gm. Im wondering if I can take a 1985 marine 350 and replace it. Will the intake, exhaust manifolds, and gimbal housing swap over?

Ayuh,... If it's actually an 87, you need an 87 or Later replacement...
The rear main seal changed in 87,+ previous motors don't swap, Easily...

You will need a pre 87 flywheel. The intake will fit, and I see no reason why the manifolds wont as well.
