The M410 transmission won't fit unless it has the

B20 output shaft and also if you have one of the

couple hundred B20 -> M410 bell housings. These

were on only a few of one year of 1800, are rare,

and in general only desirable if you wish to make

a B20 with B30 power for use in racing.

The M410 is not a volvo built transmission, and

was only used in the fuel injected B30s. Find out

what it came from -- it is almost 100% certain that

it came from a 164.

I've read from topi's web site that the M410

can use the top off of an M40 or M41, but this is

the smallest of your problems when using it in a

140.

You would be better off sourcing a M41, which is

the correct transmission for this car. I have an

M41 that I'm probably not going to use, and would

like to have an M410 for my 164. I'd probably

even throw in some money given the rarity of the

M410 transmission. Are you the guy in colorado?

I'm in riverside, california.
