No, sorry.

The short answer seems to be that '030/40 and 50MHz accelerators
fall somewhere between an A4000/030 and A4000/040 in general. I have
a review article on a Blizzard 1230-II/40MHz which includes full
Benchmark test results, albeit specific to that board. It's on Aminet
if you want to take a look:
