Dave,it's a 5-speed manual overdrive,and boy could I use a Gear Vendors overdrive unit behind it.The H-rated tires have a shorter sidewall and impact the gearing such that I will have to over-rev the engine,something I'm not real comfortable about.A new timing chain and all new valve springs have been recommended.
Mickey Thompson has a site supposed to be good for the best deals on GOODYEAR Eagle racing tires.They may have a 'taller' tire.
I may have to look into these.About $400.00 a pop. Ouch!
