but it tops out at around 50 and is screaming. Going up hills is impossible in 4th, even after milling the head .060, electronic ignition, a two-barrel carb, and electric fan/fuel pump mods. If you only drive on flat ground, larger tires and 4.89's would let you cruise at 50 easily and be a big improvement. You'll get tired of going up hills in 2nd gear in short order if you live in hilly country.
