Re: [VAL] Tow?

Chris ,
     It has a flat head Mercury v8 and a three speed manual  Trans. and 
Im sure a high ratio rear end sounds good but im sure it wouldnt last 
long . Flat head fords were noted for sand in the water jackets and 
heating up , The tclutch is probably light duty and Im sure the rear end 
would probably give you a 55 mph max at ??????rpms.
     Late model v8 Trans and rear end and now your talking.
