Right now I'm building a 67 Valiant that is going to be my daily cruiser. It has a .060" over 318 giving it 327 CID, a late model A Body 4 spd O/D with .73 4th gear, and 3.91 in a 8 3/4 rearend. I'm planning on around 325 to 340 HP out of it and 2700 at 70 MPH in 4th. It has the larger 12" C body disc brakes with .990 torsion bars, and a 1 3/16" front sway bar up front. Out back it has 11x3" C body drums and a 3/4" sway bar. It will weigh in around 3,000 to 3100 LBS with the custom 22 gal. fuel cell full. If I can get the motor to push it that fast it should be good for around 130+ MPH.
My other car is a 70 Duster with a 440/727/8 3/4 with 3.91s and 29.5x15.5x15 M/T
As for going over 140 MPH in a B Body a good buddy of mine had a 70 SuperBee with a 440-4 spd that went 150+ MPH on a regular bases.
