Hi Jim,
I sold a guy a TKO years ago to install in his 428 Shelby Mustang. It had 3.89 gears, 2 4 bbl Holleys & a nice Crower cam. The problem was the cam wanted to go 80-90 mph to run clean and not buck. We installed a much more docile camshaft and he then loved to drive his car at normal speeds. The cam we used lost a tiny at redline and gained total driveability....
