I don';t know about a big-block in a volvo but a 283 would fit right nice in one of those. One of my first vehicles was an old Volvo like that.I really liked that car.

WOW... My sister-in-law has a 'Smart-for-Two' that is yellow and festooned with 'Hello Kitty' stickers... the mental image of her car screaming around with a gixxer engine in it is just too funny... I wonder how complicated the retrofit is?
