That would be OK, but can the split ring type wheel be safe with tubes over 55? My ultimate goal is to have a totally original looking truck that will go 70 if needed....that would be cool. I think the 350 swap with possible auto overdrive would get me close, but I worry about that speed with the original wheel setup. I'm not sure what will have to happen with suspention either but that is further down the road.


When I yield to Him, it's amazing how peaceful and enjoyable life is meant to be.
