<< In my car with a C/R H/C gear set with a 3.9 diff ratio:
41mph at 7,000 rpm in 1st
65 mph in 2nd
93 mph in 3rd
100mph in 3rd if you take it to 7,500 rpm
I usually change up from 3rd to 4th at about 80mph and then drop it into 5th
for a cruise of about 85 - 90 mph.

I find my 72 to be a bit scary at 80+ mph because it's very quick to react
to the slightest steering input. Is this normal?
I have rebuilt the following in the past 2 years:
Front suspension w/stock rubber bushings
Front springs, 340lb
3/4 inch swaybar
Stock rear springs w/ poly bushings
Other than poly front bushings what is needed to settle it down?
What about front alignment? I am currently at 1/16" toe-in.
Help..............Me
Thanks
