redoing the math
41mm / (25.4 mm per inch) = 1.67 inches diameter.
I think the Mini Speed lensboard is 2.5" x 2.5"
(2.5" - 1.67")/ 2 = 0.41"
That would leave .41" from the outside diameter of the lens to the edge of the lens board.

This seems like enough room but I can't be sure
having never outfitted a Speed Graphic with a
new lens.

The other consideration is do I have enough bellows extension for this lens to focus at the film plane?
