Hey guys, I picked up my M41 from Cam this afternoon at SWEDISH Relics, as apposed to Volvo Relix as I posted earlier. DOH! So the reason I wanted to get back on here and tell you the correct name of the company is because I am TRULY impressed with Cameron's work on my gear boxes (YES 2). He built a backup gearbox just to have in the garage. Cameron built mine with new everything including bearings, seals, synchros rings, you get the picture. I basically have a brand new better than stock gearbox and OD for my build! I'll have pictures for you soon! I'm giving Cam an A+ on his work to the point where I'm giving the shameless plug! Swedish Relics is located at: 1281 NE 25th Ave Unit D Hillsboro, OR 97124. He's your guy if you're in the area! Also, my apologies to Cam for bringing in a used gear box put together with Red Loctite and getting your business name wrong on another post! More to come.....





Here are some pics of the overdrive and gearbox rebuild. Mmmmmmm M41!

Hey guys,
Another update! I just received my fuel rail from my machine shop guy. Yes, I could have done this myself but I've been swamped with the new baby and work. I also like to keep with the Portland mentality of helping small business in the area. I took a dash 6 fuel stock from Ross Machine Racing, tapped the ends and added 5 fuel rail barbs. Let me stop everyone's comments ahead of time. I know my car in a 4 banger so why did I add the extra bung? Cold start valve connects to the rail. The old rail looks like a trombone. I like this clean look and I can hide the injector wiring under the rail when the time comes.
