Cool, my wife rolled the pickup (90 model, sohc in case anyone's interested) so I stuffed the whole drivetrain into a MG Midget (I started out with just the engine and tranny but the midget rearend only lasted about a week before giving up all of it's gear teeth).

I'm not sure if the 240 and the pickup used the same trans. or even rear end gears, but knowing a general redline helps.

The cam in this is definitely made for lower RPMs, it makes power to about 5600 or so, then kinda falls off, but in a 1600 pound car it doesn't matter all that much.
