Agreed with Hans, I *believe the v6 that is is in the 760's is the infamous 'PRV' or 'co-op' engines, a joint effort between Peugeout, Renault, and Volvo. If you've never seen one, they're amazingly tall engines, from the bottom of the looooong sump to the top of the valve covers seems like it's 4 feet. They reputedly (my Peugeout 604 wasn't around long enough to determine longevity) have oiling problems to the cams.
Probably get more and better advice at http://www.brickyard.com , volvo site similar to TSN. Watch out though, some of those Volvo guys are weird :)
