I recently bought a 30 coupe with a BorgWarner overdrive unit. I have to say I love it .Being able to drive it at faster speeds and also a lot less engine vibration and less stress on engine. I would defiantly install a overdrive in another car. Also as far as the brakes for stopping I just make sure they are adjusted right. Yes it doesn't stop on a dime but weather your going 35mph or 50mph in these cars you always have to scan ahead and be prepared to stop because most people don't realize theses cars have mechanical brakes. Just my two cents.
