My 65 122S Canadian has 4:10 rear axle the M41 and J overdrive .... I run 205/70 14" tires that have almost the same circumference as the old 165-15's .... in overdrive my B20E turns 3000 @ 73 mph and highway driving at that speed she gives me just about 30 mpg on the nose .. sometimes slightly above ... and that's with a pair of HS6 carbs. Last summer we made a 3,000 mile round trip to Ontario and back through the States ... had minor carb problems along the way but had a great trip otherwise ... Have fun Havinfun ;-)

Old Volvos never die ..... The just become "COOL"
