Re: Hole through oil pan
I'd agree with Solidaxle 100% those engines don't like 75 mph and an old engine with old bearings stands a good chance of bearing failure when you stress it like that.
A fresh engine with a good smooth crank and fitted bearings you could probably do it but a well worn six of that vintage isn't going to handle it for long.
