I think we all have to down shift. I got a Mitchell in my car with 378s in the rear, with 650 16 tires. I just did some motor work , and put a tac in my car. to make it easier on the motor I started splitting second gear. I have not driven my car over a lot of hills but when I have I have I split second gear.my car tacs out at about 1900 at 53 mph and it seems happy there. I don't think that it likes to go much higher.
