If you were running a 4-speed as an example your top speed would have been slightly higher at the same engine RPM by whatever percentage the converter slips. JB -- Original Message -- From: "Dick J"

double check those tires. a 235/60-15 should only be 26" diameter. now a 235/70-15 would get you almost 28". and if that's the size you have let us know.

Don't believe any manufacturer used chrome in the bearing layers. Like Dave said it has to be off the crank (if its chromed) or off of some other component. JB -- Original Message -- From: "Dave Dahl
