My 2017 R27 Classic needs a new engine. Any suggestions?
 
What happened that an entirely new engine is needed? Is any of it salvageable? Transmission?
 
Straight swap-outs are the "easiest". Enquiring minds want to know...What Happened?
 
The Volvo D3 is no longer produced. According to Volvo at the Rendezvous there is an exchange program available where you exchange you old engine for a new long block to build an engine using the needed additional parts from your old engine.

I would contact MSHS Pacific Power Group if you are in the Seattle area.

I have heard of a few people who have had this done after a failed timing belt ruined the engine.
