Default Re: Better gas Mileage

I put a 3:54 on 3 days ago on my 64 with a 305 and it is a substantial difference but still need an overdrive if you ask me since the torque will handle the high gears on the Nevada flats. Wouldn't that be cool to be lugging or chugging along at 80 with no problem? My friend is a tranny/driveline guy and says that Volvo had an overdrive that might work. If not it needs a Brownie or Gear vendor. Going to put a Holley 500 on this week since the old carb I rebuilt was good for a few days and won't idle now. Not messing with it. R and R with Holley sounds good to me.
