The np435 has a final gear ratio of 1:1. Here is what you can expect if your talking a ffPW.
With a 4.83 rear with a true 36” tire your engine will be turning 3000rpm at 60 mph
With a 5.89 rear with true 36” tires your engine will be turning 3650rpm at 60 mph.
Your road speed will depend on how your engine is set up. If your willing to turn 3000 rpm you can get highway speeds. My engine was balanced and etc and will turn 5000rpm for long periods if I want. I usually keep it between 3000 and 3500 rpm. That is plenty fast.
If you are talking a ffPW and running at highway speeds then front disk brakes are needed in my opinion b
