Are they easy to swap?

Ah, I was wondering how your LC 575 had a full-on 68040. :-)  Put a heatsink on that sucker!

yes installed a nice heatsink

The question is… How do you fit a heatsink into an LC475?

the Q605/LC475,  the Q605 heat sink was REAL FUN! :)  now you got me thinking, i am going to post pictures of that tonight :)  instead of going beefy and tall, i used long and thiner, ( no choice )

update:  both of those Full 040 CPU's have been in service for months now,  They are both stamped 25mhz, However from the beginning they were both clocked to 33 mhz.  Using heat sinks in both applications with both cpu's.   No issues(so far), running great!
