its the same motor as the Focus ST in europe and i would think the 2 cars have similar dimensions(NA MK1). 

would it be worht the expense? not really, would it be fricking awesome? yes!!!!

I have all the guts from a Jag X-type minus the transmission.

There is lots of work involved, but yes it would be worth it... The Jag x-type uses the MTX-75 with a transber box...

There is a thread on the FF site about this. The Volvo is highly feasible.
