peterwgpa Dont quote me but I dont think so. My understanding is this is for model 1030 and later model is 1031 and there is a size differential. Google Anthony Hyde Volvo diff and an excelent article with pictures to illustrate or better still the link is at top of this thread
Major Ledfoot @peterwgpa have you had a chance to do some testing with the new gears? How does the car feel out of corners now?

peterwgpa Not yet. Still at mechanics. New crown and pinion is in,cometic head gasket is on after head had to be shaved, Offending electric fan fixed as well as a few other end of season maintensnce items and it is due to be finished at dyno this week as we have ditched avgas in favor of BP 98 and just dialing it in as best as possible. It is due to go for proper alignment in January so intend to track test after that. Back end of year got away from us. Hanging out to see what it all means.

Just for my knowledge.

Just for my knowledge. Not in a 1031 for less than $2k (some guys in sweeden have had custom stuff made up)
peterwgpa Can understand that. Makes 3.91 at Winton flogging a dead horse? Would need a good engine that likes to Rev. Would top out at about 190kmh in 5th with normal Volvo ratios
