The Comet is an absolute BLAST to drive! It's running like a dream, I'm very impressed with the Tremec 5 speed and the car goes down the road like a new car. Now it's time to have some fun.

Cool, what rear gear are you running?
66 Cyclone GT; 245/60R15's on 15x8's and 215/70R15's on 15x7 Magnum's.
There's nothing like the sound of a pushrod V8 singing at the top of her lung's.

Nine inch 3.50 gear makes for all around good driving without higher revs at freeway speeds.
