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.

Thanks for the information. I would think 2000 RPM at 55-60 would be about as fast as I would like to go in an Model A under normal conditions. Should you have the need to go faster how fast can you push it with a Mitchell for extended periods of time?
