    I just sold a cab over and it had 4.33's and a 375hp N14 that had been turned up to 425hp.
    That truck would run 75 or so at 21-2200 rpm for hours and never hurt it.
    1800 will never phase it.

    Note....No "S" in RPM. "RPMs" ranks right up there with "Cummings" engines. Thank you Magoo

    Electric motor Theories don't exactly apply to old manuel motors, they like to be turning to be efficient
