Just put a bigger cam in it and turn it to 6500 and you have your 135 you need in 4th. How often do you plan to take that 40 year old car over 150?
Interesting. Thanks for the info. The cost increase to go with the T-56 is pretty insane. Almost double of the TKO-600. I think that $2k would be better saved for a full cage before anything else.

I think you'd be surprised how often both of our cars will spend at the top of the gears on the faster courses out there. At Cal speedway I was pinning the rev limiter at 6k at 125mph or so the entire main straight and into turn 1/2. All that power, lack of gears!

For my families sake maybe its best I avoid the T-56.
