3000 rpm for prolonged periods of time is screaming, to me, especially when 3500 is pretty much considered red-line on the stock 230. My '50 is getting a total re-power (360, NP435, Dana 60/70 with 4.10's) this spring because I'd like to be able to drive to the next town sometime without worrying about it grenading or ticking off the 30 drivers stuck behind me on the way. I'm going to take the taken-off parts and put them on my '54 parts truck, then use it as the wood hauler and "yard tractor". I'm all for originality, if you can afford it and don't drive it every day. But, I'm dirt-poor, and my '50 IS my daily driver. I deserve to enjoy my truck just as much as the millionaire.

By the way, look through my Photobucket albums, And you'll see the '54 (with 14.00-20 tires) and my '47 parts truck, as well.
