I definitely would install another Mitchell. I like the way they work and shift and you can use them as a "Gear Splitter" which can be very helpful when driving in the mountains. I have done a lot of touring with my model A and the Mitchell makes it much more enjoyable.

I can run along very comfortable at 55-60 MPH and even 65 if necessary but as Tom Endy said, the engine is very happy at 2000 RPM.

I also have a Mitchell Transmission which also is a big improvement.

My experience.
