Hey guys. I got a 69 Special Deluxe with a Chevy 250 and I've been looking around at transmissions and I'm not sure which to choose. I have a ridiculously high rev going down the highway doing like 65 or 70 (probably about 2900rpm or 3000rpm). The final gear on most of these trannys is a 1:1 so a tranny without overdrive won't make a difference. I think i already have a 2.83 in the back so I'm not sure what to do to make the revs lower. I think I've read that the redline is 4200 but is there a way increase that without endangering the engine? I just need to lower my revs on the highway is the main point but the redline just seems a little low compared to other engines.
