what I learned.... with a 353 and the deuce overdrive and 11000r16 tires, you could go 65mph and it would be at max rpm. the noise didn't really bother me but it was noisy, overall to put a 353 in isn't worth it, unless you put a turbo on it as tom p mentioned. the red 6x6 I built did end up with a turbo on it and it woke it up pretty good. go with a 4 cylinder 250hp isb. now you got some power.
