4.10 here also, cruise at 55mph comfortably all day long. Stock 216 with about
the same mileage, around 14mpg.

http://www.pbase.com/dennygraham/image/117149859 I’ve found the stock Huck brakes on my ’50 are quite adequate even in panic
stops from 55mph. Never had any brake fade, I’m not road racing with it so even
at speed I’m stopped in a few seconds, taint enough time for the brakes to get hot.
If they are done properly they are just fine. Problem comes from taking short cuts
with the brake job.
