Now that I have been driving my new old 1954 chevrolet pickup for a while I can see that eventually I am goin to have to change something to be able to cruise in the 60 mph range. The 235 with 3 speed on the column just purrs while going down the road, but it sure would be nice to get up to highway speeds without it feeling like the rpm's were so high. The 45 to 55 range is fine for the back roads but when I've got to get on a highway I feel like a fox with its tail tucked between it's legs trying to stay ahead of a pack of hounds. And all the hounds around this city are on stairoids. If anyone has any suggestions I'm all ears.! Thanks from a new Stovebolter..
I think the stock rearend for my truck is a 390.
