Yeah it's either that or bolt on some 33s or 35s and wheel it till it breaks something. I need to just control myself and take some time between now and next summer to do things right...

I think you should just dump the 351, shove in a stroker version of the 460, and replace parts as they break.

Thats even if the truck will hold 65 mph. With 39.5's on my truck, whenever I put it in 4th gear I would actually start slowing down. With stock gears and a hurtin' motor it was no speed demon, but it could wheel any hole in the pit.
