Yep, mine had like 308 to1 rear. Friend mine pulled up beside me in his hopped up 55 chevy on interstate late one night, making it hop like he want to race. At 70 MPH the starfire wasn’t even turning 2 grand. We floored it, he initial got out in front couple links, at 120 I flew pass him, the little mouse motor was wound out with 3.89 gears. I was just getting rolling.
