Re: 1930 pickup driving speed
I have a '31 RDPU with a 3.54 rear end (definitely not stock) and it is comfortable at 55 mph. Much above that and the front fenders act like airplane wings and the front end becomes very light and it feels like power steering. A passing semi or a canyon the crosses the highway is definitely easily noticed.
If you are toping out at 30-35 start by checking to see if you have full travel on the throttle. Then check the timing.
