I drove my NA engine with one rotor from Baltimore to Tennesse 8hrs over 500 miles. I would slow down to 60 going up hills but on the flats I could touch 80-90 mph. And yes it did burn a ton of gas getting their. Drove back from Tennesee with a new t2 motor so it was a worth while trip

I can vouch for that. My nice chrome exhaust tips are now blue.

Sweet, if it were me i'd do the 100 miles first, or since the guy said he can take it out 150 miles (hopefully w/out AAA) he can take it to a spot and then have aaa take it the rest of the way.
