I think Shellogy's dad had a inacurate speedometer. The point I made before, do you really want to compete with the Honda crazies at 65-80 MPH in one of these trucks. I have a 350 in my 56 with PS, disc brakes, 3:90 rear end, and an OD. It will cruise nicely at 65 but I don't feel comfortable at higher speeds. Forget about stopping at 70 with stock brakes if somebody does something stupid in front of you.
