Thanks Jocko for the info!! The mileage and performance is good. With the mild 305 and TH350, I have no complaints, just curious. I would like to go to an 700R4 the next go around.

At 65 I turn 2500rpm with a 215/70/15 tire. I would like to go to a taller next time also and that will bring my rpm's down too.
