All I will say is SW Autos. They have done the trick with mine, suprisingly cheap to. I think mine went from 10kgs to 7.5kgs...

Are you going to remove an refit yourself..?

unless you've got a spare £**** to get a aluminium billet one designed and manufactured for Quaiffe.. lol . if you do then we'll sll be your friend and be able to get one that weighs about 4kgs....

The later Volvos and the ST have dual mass flywheel, the earlier 850's dont.

Hi Don
How you doing this is Darren from Malta we met at south Mimms,anyway I got the early 850,and I had a bit of a fall out with sombody who does performance tuning in the UK so I have to do all of the research on me own.Been looking at your lsd latley but will see how things go after the engine gets finished.
