RE: 406 conv

Seems my memory was a little foggy today. It was actually 120 MPH at 4800 RPMs. Mathematically that makes 5600 RPMs right at 140 MPH.

Looking back, I remember that big heavy 406 convertible was actually pretty stable, even at that speed. Good thing we didn't know about the way 60's style tires were, it might have scared us. Nah, we were both just 18 at the time and we were fearless. I will admit that back then I ran 4.57 gears in my '63 406 boxtop Galaxie so I would not be tempted to play the top end game.
This thread, so far...
