Dave,
             I have the article  in the 1986 "Hot Rod Engine Annual" and
the only mention of Volvo I can find is the use of Volvo intake valves as
oversize replacements in the 300 Buick head. It says they are .040 of an
inch longer and to shim the rocker stands to accommodate them.
         All the pistons mentioned  for the 9 different  CID 
combinations are either Buick, Chevy or Ford .
         Of course Phil may have come up with several other combinations
since then.  The address in the book is :
Baker's Auto Repair
19552 40th Pl.  NE
Seattle , WA.  98155           Phone-   206-363-5088

Thumbing through this magazine brings back memories. And the prices for
parts............
                             Happy Motoring,  Greg
