Re: Long drive...


I've got a standard 1147 never rebuilt and can manage 70 with no
problems. I do notice that that drops to around 60 when the temp and
humidity are high. The trip from Dave's house to mine is a little
better than 90 miles on the freeway. The few times I did it were
always a rip. Now it's about 20 miles or so to Dixon to get into the
water.
