If you're speaking of the Italeri/Revell kits, I believe they are curbside meaning they have no engine, just something that resembles an engine from underneath. The hoods are inoperable. This is what I have heard, I have never bought one.

Volvo sells the VN series with either the Volvo D16, D13 or D11 engine. (D11 in daycab only) I remember a while ago someone offered a Volvo D12 conversion, but you needed a Volvo cab-over kit.

Here's the link to Volvo powertrain:
