I have a 41 Plymouth with a built 250 six (260 comp cam)and a 700R4 hooked to a 9" ford 3.50 gears and 27" tall tires. I built this car to drive. Last year pulling my roadster on a trailer from the convention in Iowa I avg 20 mpg. last weeek I attended the NTBA nationals in Lenoir North Carolina. Towing the roadster I averaged 14.2 Mpg and pulled many hills with 8 and 9 percent grades. The most important thing about either of the O D transmissions is getting the throttle pressure set properly.


Been there, Done that, Hope to live long enough to do it again.
