That's pretty much the setup I am hoping to have with my '59. LOVE those Dell'Ortos.

Right now it's a stock 1600cc hooked up to a '68 transaxle...still rockin' the swingaxle, but running a little higher gear ratio. Used to be able to scratch in first, second, and third gear with the original transaxle!
