I took apart a Quadra 950 (PSU dead, RIP) and salvaged the 33MHz 040. Runs great at 40MHz in my LC475 - awesome work! Only thing is I couldn't get it to work in System 7.1 so I'm on 7.5.3, might take another run at it since 7.1 on a 40MHz 040 would just be blazing fast 😍

Got it working now! No idea why it didn't work earlier, just seemed like the setting wouldn't stick but it's happily cranking away at 40MHz under System 7.1 now (with appropriate System Enabler ofc)
