The fact that I don't yet have my OD installed makes going out of town practically impossible.
The gearing in that ole '56 just can't keep up with the 70-80mph traffic of todays freeways.
Maybe if I could at least easily cruise 60-65 I'd try, but holding 3000+rpms for 2-4 hours just seems like way too much on the old thing, rebuilt engine or not...
