Now you know why I've said over and over again I will never build another car without overdrive. Drove that same setup to Florida in my 68. Nearly shit myself when we got further south and the speed limits went up to 75 lol.

converter is on the agenda, however were pretty damn satisfied with what $300 bucks did for this thing. car would get up and go before but now were fighting to keep it going in a straight line until 55 from a 30mph punch! maybe better tires are a good idea before a converter? lol

Better tires are always a good idea.
