Well after the week I have had my lady and I are relaxing, and  into our 
second bottle of fine Australian wine....I used to live at the bottom  of the 
Barrosa valley and have a few stashed away. Question, after driving my  new to 
me 
tiger....80 miles an hour or 130 kms which the rest of us use, seems  to be 
close to 4000 rpms. Now I have not done the tire to driveshaft check  
yet....maybe mon... but does this seem high to the rest of you? This is the  
speed you 
have to do to drive the 400 series hwys' around Toronto the armpit of  ontario. 
I DO NOT need more acceleration, this thing lites the tires up at   every 
chance. I also want to keep it close to orginial. If I have a 2.88 what  do I 
do? 
I want to do appox 3000rpm or less at 120 kms....70mph.. and I do  not want 
to change to a 5 speed..just having a bit of a whinge here but we want  to 
travel in this car. Anyway next weeks main project is to get a safety check  
done 
and plate the car so it's legal
