Quote from post 1:
" describes how he would start the car in low, get up to 25 miles per hour, let off the gas, and then shift into high".

25 mph in low????? Is that a misprint???? Should it be Five or maybe 15 mph at the max???? Must be a misprint unless the author was discussing drag racing or pulling Airstreams thru the Rockies or similar operation.

Mite want to reread the article. If 25 mph in low is correct and exactly what the author meant then maybe he also indicated something like a 2.90 rear axle ratio???
