VOLVO MD2020 = PERKINS 103-07

In case anyone has any doubt, attached is an image of the block of a Volvo MD2020. As you can see from the casting marks it is actually a Perkins 103-07. All Volvo does is spray paint this motor green and mark up the parts 1,000%. You can buy Perkins 103-07 parts for about 10% of what Volvo charges for EXACTLY the same part. Example: Volvo wants almost US$1,000 for a fresh water pump. The same pump from Perkins is about $100.

Parts4Engines is an excellent UK based supplier. Even after shipping cost from the UK, you are still WAY ahead.
