410 gears, hmmmm, I have those in my '68 and it practically redlines driving 85 mph. The 410's might be good in this car - how would it affect the top speed or 1 mile drags?

You have both 5th & 6th overdrive, 75 MPH = 2200 RPM aprox in 6th, with 410's, I get 22 MPG with 410's and 422 RWHP, close to redline in 4th at 1/4 mile, close to redline in 5th at mile with 410's
