While on the subject of tires and tire pressure, I found this article to be interesting that Auto Trader Classics posted from interviews with Corky Coker (Coker Tires), John Kelsey (Kelsey Tires) and other tire brand representatives.http://www.autotraderclassics.com/car-article/Bias_Ply+Or+Radial%3F-71273.xhtml

Since I'm getting ready to swap out those despicable "Blazer" wheel rims for a set of freshly painted originals on my Clipper, I wanted to obtain as much information as I could on the Radial vs. Bias debate. Reason being is that even though they are only the 1.6" wide whitewalls, the radial tires that came on the car are like brand new and I couldn't see spending the money on new tires until I wear these out then I'll decide whether I want to replace them with Radials or Bias. It was also interesting that Corky suggested cranking the pressures up in the radials to 36-40 Lbs.
