My '50 has a '59 261 with a mild cam, Fenton headers, McGurk intake with 2 Holley/Webers, 4.11 gears and a Tremec 5 spd. We drive it all over and drag race it on weekends (1/8 mi). The truck will go an honest 100mph and get 20 mpg cruising at 65mph. It is very driveable and great fun. There are pic's of it in the Gallery under Ron and Kim Plender.
