Also I remember a film at the time talking about the custom built cylinder head. It alone was quite a feat! Emissions regulation probably made the design, even a lesser version impossible to sell. ie. like the dealer installed STAGE 2 455 Buick. Even in 1970, you ordered a STAGE 2 GS455 it arrived f...

I was looking at the other cover..and it appears that..really all I would have to do is bore a hole through where the other sensor goes and I ...

You could go with one of the MVS sponsors. My car only gets Volvo Genuine parts from my Volvo dealership only. That's just my preference. Have you explored the sponsors like FCP Euro? I would not use Ebay, as I have read on here where people have gotten counterfeit parts rather than the advertised G...
