Just curious, people with Spitfires without overdrive:  do you drive your
Spit on the highway?  Or do you limit yourself to certain speeds?

I don't have OD, and I am VERY hesitatant about taking the car over ~62
mph...anyone else have the same feelings (at that speed I can hear the air
jetting into the carb...'whistling' if you will and I'm raising about 3400
- 3500 on the tach!).
