I have a solid strap on my 70 Roadrunner four speed. The motor doesn't move at all and I want to do this to all my other cars.
The engine limiter in mine works fine, I just don't like the looks of it. I try really hard to stealth things up on this car. Yes, there are compromises (the rollbar drives me nuts as do the Cal-Tracs) but they are necessary evils.
