Volvo Modular engine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Volvo Modular engine is a family of straight-4, straight-5, and straight-6 automobile piston engine produced from the first year Volvo 960 appeared with the B6304F engine (1990). It has an aluminium engine block and aluminium 4-valve DOHC cylinder heads and uses SFI fuel injection and has fracture-split forged steel connecting rods. All are built in Skövde, Sweden.

[edit] 2.9
The B6294 is a 2.9 L (2922 cc) straight-6 built in Skövde, Sweden.
[edit] B6294S
The B6294S is a 2.9 L (2922 cc) straight-6 built in Skövde, Sweden. Bore is 83 mm and stroke is 90.3 mm. Output is 194 hp (145 kW) at 6000 rpm with 207 ft·lbf (281 N m) of torque at 4200 rpm. This engine is based on the B6304 (see below), but refined for transverse mounting and variable valve timing.
Applications:
- 2003 S80 2.9
[edit] B6294T
The B6294T is a 2.9 L (2922 cc) version built in Skövde, Sweden. Bore is 83 mm and stroke is 90.3 mm. Output is 268 hp (200 kW) at 5200 rpm with 280 ft·lbf (380 N m) of torque at 1800-5000 rpm. It has two turbochargers and is intercooled.
Applications:
- 2003 S80 T6/T6 Executive
- 2003 XC90 T6
[edit] B6304S
The B6304S was the first generation of modular inline-6 engines. It has the same bore and stroke (83x90 mm) as the B6294, but the deciliter number was rounded up (i.e. 2,922 cc to 3,000 cc). These engines produced 204 hp (152 kW) at 6000 rpm, and 197 ft·lbf (267 N·m) of torque at 4,300 rpm. Engine output was reduced to 180 hp (130 kW) and 199 ft·lbf (270 N·m) by changing the cam profile (back then without variable valve timing) in favor of emissions regulations.
To develop this new, modular engine type, Volvo had a cooperation project with Porsche / Weissach.
Applications:
- 1990~1998 Volvo 960, S/V-90 (Longitudinally Mounted RWD)
[edit] B6254S
A new, small 2.5-litre engine, known as the B6254 FS, was introduced for the 1995 Volvo 960. It developed 170 bhp (130 kW) at 5,700 rpm and maximum torque of 230 Nm at 4,400 rpm. This engine was identical in every way to the larger B6304S, apart from the stroke being reduced to 80 mm and the bore to 81 mm, producing a displacement of 2,473 cc. Like other Volvo engines, it was optimised for low-end and middle range torque. [4]
Applications:
- 1995~1998 Volvo 960 (Longitudinally Mounted RWD)
[edit] B6254G
Non-catalyst, leaded-fuel compatible version of the B6254S, for regions with limited availability of unleaded fuel.
