Mike Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I like the looks of the 79 Cruiseliner.

Just wondered what the top speed is with his setup?mikewell my 6 speed direct with 4.17 will do 61-62 mph at 2100. I would say 3.65's would get you to about 71mph..

Superdog Posted April 25, 2012 Author Share Posted April 25, 2012 Dad had a Cruiseliner with 3:87's and a 5 speed,it would run 72,so I'd guess the 3:65's would put you close to 80 on 20" rubber.

Green Dash Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 The Cruiseliner looks good in that shade of blue.Dad had a Cruiseliner with 3:87's and a 5 speed,it would run 72,so I'd guess the 3:65's would put you close to 80 on 20" rubber.Any trouble getting it going when heavy with the faster axle?
