George is right, I too recall a guy in the TDI Club Forum putting an ALH-spec TDi 4-cylinder into a 245 with a 5-speed transmission. It is a real slick conversion, I believe that car and owner are in California.
I'm not interested in manufacturer or brand warfare. You're asking about re-powering your Volvo with a diesel engine on a Volvo Diesel Forum. I would expect people to chime in with a D24T suggestion. If you don't want to utilize the factory route please feel free to try something different. I for one would like to put an Isuzu 4BD1-T into a FZJ-80 series Toyota Land Cruiser. Yes there are factory diesels (in ROTW) but I think that Isuzu is the bees knees!
Keep us updated on your project!

I certainly will start a thread to keep everyone here in the loop... once I either find a factory diesel to play with or give up on that and get a dirt cheap gas burner to gut.
