It will cruise effortlessly all day at modern interstate highway speeds with a 3.07 differential gearing. It has no need for a 5-speed and pulls the original 4 speed gears impressively with way over 300 lb/ft of torque and 100+ horsepower over the standard factory engine. This car wants to go and is deceptively fast, however, docile in traffic. See the brief video at advert # 1724001 Hemmings online.
