I cruise at 50 mph on good roads .I have cruised at 50 fou many years and have never hurt any of my engines . They all seem to like this speed and cruise with comfort . I run 3.78 gears and run the original proper size wheels and tires on all but 1 . Some run 5.9 heads but no major mods . I use Walmart 20w50 oil that is made by Mobil and sold at a lower price . I feel that it is unsafe to drive at speeds less than 50 mph on the main roads . Not for the sake of disagreement but I would drive mine at 50 mph as far as I needed to go as long as the roads permit .
