There's always one who will disagree. <g> I would not run 4.10's on the highway without an overdrive trans.
Tom,if your engine was only turning 3500 at 75mph,you either had a bad tach or some very tall rear tires.

I disagree. I was running 4.10's in my 70 for the last 5 years and at 3500 RPM's the car ran 75 MPH. I never had a problem with the 4.10's on the highway. The car had a sweet spot between 3500 and 4000 RPMs and it ran great. It never overheated and got 15 MPG. My 69 with a 307/PG and 2.73's gets worse gas mileage than the 500 HP big block in the 70.
