mribbich 'Bolter M Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 242 eagle, wisconsin	I have a 1942 Chevy 1-1/2 ton truck that I ran the numbers on (tire size, gear ratio, and speed) and at 50mph I would be running at 2600 rpms. Am I asking for trouble at that speed or not. What is the best rpm to run this engine????? Thanks for your help!!!! Marv.
