O.d.

I figured on using 1st,2nd @ 3rd for the occasional race but not 4th or,od under power. As far as Why? Simple,,,16 to 20 mpg in a light A body, instead of 8 to 10. The opportunity to drive cross country at highway speeds @ 2000 rpm,also see mileage. I'm not building a garage or trailer queen. I'm partial to mopar. Always was when younger. Gas was .69 cents a gallon then. If I can't create a combo like I want,I'll just sell he car and do something else... But thanks everyone for all the advice. Once my "direction" is figured out,I'll start buyin or sellin stuff.
