Re: Does this sound right?

My '73 also has 4.10s and I'd love to have taller gearing, my engine is just a truck motor and doesn't seem to enjoy sustained high RPM. Sure, it'll do it, but it sure does scream. It's kinda fun to be able to burn rubber all day even with a utility bed full of tools though.

Another option would be to swap to an overdrive trans - if you have a 700R4 now you wouldn't lose much going to a TH350.
