I've gone both routes before with success either way. I can see the fittings failing if they are the standard sort of AN fitting, but proper high pressure reusable PS fittings have worked really well for me. I bought high pressure power steering fittings and hose on ebay and made my own line on my first swap (which I put about 13,000 miles on). The second time around I went to Hyquip on 124th in Butler and had them make a similar line, but with crimp fittings, while I waited (and that one has 3,000 miles or so on it now). Why wouldn't Hyquip do it?

Awesome! I would love to see some sample pics of cut quality

Very nice. That's the best part so far. Do it!

Call me crazy, but this doesn't seem very far from completion. Is there anything complicated or unknown remaining?

Your price doesn't sound crazy considering the items you mentioned, assuming the interior and exterior are in good shape. V70R prices are pretty ridiculous, especially in comparison to S60Rs which are now dirt cheap.
I'd love to buy one, but I just can't get past the heavy tax you pay for the wagon.

How much are you selling it for?

I love that they left the exterior pretty much stock looking, awesome sleeper
I know the guy that put that car together. He used to be active on the RWD Volvo forum and I met him when I went out to Portland a couple years back. Super down to earth, really talented and has built a number of very nice trucks and RWD volvos in his garage.

Not sure what modes of communication you're using, but I've always had luck reaching him on Facebook Messenger.

3 weeks before I came home I nearly caught a bullet with my head. Bullets make quite an interesting sound when they fly that close to your ears.
Had some pretty interesting experiences there for sure
How was the traffick?

I've been toying around with the idea of ditching my Volvo and picking up a clownshoe. It ticks the weird+cool scale all the way up at the top.

Are we there yet?

That 2002 is pretty awesome aside from the tire paint. The want is strong.

Good luck. If the helicoils give you trouble, keenserts (or timeserts) will be there for you. I had about 50% success rate with helicoils in the same application (aluminum head, low torque fasteners to secure the cams) before being shown the light by a friend.

I took the Lake Express from Milwaukee to Muskegon about a month ago in my stock 2006 330i sport with a full trunk of luggage.
I had a light high-center scrape underneath the car while getting off and on again in Muskegon. I pulled straight on--with a stock ride height car I assumed there wouldn't be a need for stancelyfe maneuvers.

almost looks like the flange might be upside down on that manifold (which is exactly the problem with some ebay volvo manifolds too)
