I assume we're not talking about Viagra for 90 year olds.
I thought about doing the gears. But I spend too much time on freeways doing 70-75. During an extended cruise at 4000+ I find myself wishing that 6th were taller. The last thing I want is to make 6th into 5th.

I guess that's why I'm still thinking about it

4:56, I will have to check on the 70MPH RPM, 6th gear is not the tall overdrive gear it used to be it has some pull now.
Mileage? I never check that, this is a fun car not my commuter.
Matt you are welcome to drive my car if you want.

I wasn't talking about golf, golf is a nice walk ruined. Me and my S are going to win the Concours D'excellence in 2027 so it has to remain stock. I expect that you'll be there to cheer me on.

I'll probably end up holding out for a Roots-type SC instead.

My bad. I'd be glad to be there to cheer you on. What exactly is it? And why 2027?
I'm glad you'll be joining us.

In the year 2027 my S will be 25 years old and the first year it will qualify as an historic vehicle.

I am thinking and there is a good possibility that I will do some modification, but I will wait till the car have some miles on it.I would like to have a 4.57 gear, headers, exhaust and a killer stereo.
