he means flipping the top gears in the trans. That means the last two holes to the right are reversed. Gives you a large overdrive. But you will see that cats have lots of power at low rpm and that also helps the engine run for a long time.

Beween the trans and what looks like tall (24.5 rubber) you should have no problem outrunning most of the black and whites

Nice piece Brian! I was actually hauling equipment today when you called. I got a 600 Cat in a 08 KW that pulls like a dream.
|
LOL! I didn't see any opinions of what it's worth! I would say no more than 10K. I sold my 5 year old(95) dressed out Volvo double stand up with a big detroit(walkin the dog, kicken the cat! and it did) with 250,000 miles on it for 12K. Can't see where in this market their is that much hype for a classic.

20k just a guess
|
Nice ride Brian. Definetly a true classsic to say the least. What's the rear axle ratio?
|
1650 is right in the powerband for that engine, 6 to 7 should be real with the top 2 gears switched depending on driver/load and where your towing. 120 may be an exaggeration on the ticket speed, unless he was empty with a flatbed and 3.55 gears and a downhill run and has the pump turned waaaay up. But a very sweet looking piece no matter what.

It's cool, are you going to shorten it up and loose an axle for just towing boats on leave it?

Volvo was your problem with your selling price. This is a PETE 359 Classic!:evilb: |
