Steve,
that's one reason i didn't want the original axles...i'd really like to be able to go over 50 mph!!!

originally, i was going to put really tall tires on it to counter the 5.83 rear end...but 6.17 gearing might inhibit that so much i'm looking at 50" tall tires just to get to the speed limit...
i know the deuces won't go over 50 or so, but if i'm running a 360 and taller tires instead of the multifuel diesels they run, can i get some speed (60 or so) without running my engine at nascar-level RPMs???

thanks again for your input...
