Check engine light does function.
Cats,sensors,ect.came from Ebay in'05 from a new '03 SVT Cobra Mustang- bought the complete system and it was cut up to fit the Volvo. Passed emissions every year until '13 ( more detail in my reply to Greg )
Thanks for the advice re: Trans.Mine absolutely does shift at lower points... I'm not planning on doing any more major mods to this car ( I'd like to have a 5 speed LS or Ford 5.0 940 in the future, though ), but I will be trying a B&M shift kit and some Mercon V fluid to see if that might make things a little more positive. I can almost eliminate the clunk by modulating the throttle at certain times, but my wife is not inclined to be so attentive- she doesn't like the experience...

THANKS for the advice, gentlemen ! I've bought some plugs/wires/distributor,PCV,ect. and hope to get the job done this week...Then I'll go back to the emissions tester...
