I didn't know that this could be calculated, but it 
will be fun to know.
 
If Johnny drove his 1963 Sundial camper at 4000 RPM 
and has a 412 ring and pinion tranny with a straight axle kit (no RBGs) and 
his tires are P185/60 R15. How fast was Lillie, riding shotgun, 
going?

Uh, he's running a straight axle.  No redux 
  boxes.

      Hence the backing off. It's late and I'm not 
      going to go out and check my tires. They are slightly smaller than stock, 
      but not radically. I have a 412 ring and pinion tranny. So I don't know 
      how fast I am going. I have a GPS that will tell me, but I lost a power 
      cable and it won't work without it.

Slow down Denis.  Don't know how your gearing is set 
        up with your tires,  But 4,000 rpms should be about 80+.  
        That's too fast in a bus.

          My speedometer is not accurate, most 
          aren't. I barely use it on the road. There were many times on this 
          trip home that I looked down at the Speedo and it was all the way 
          around and pushing on the "0" post. My reaction is to look at the 
tach 
          and oil temp, and sure enough, it was at 220 (too hot) and over 4000 
          RPM. Tie to back off. And I could watch my oil temp go 
          down.

That the oil temp stays the same (low) regardless of 
            how fast you drive?

The trailer went home with the 
              other Arkansas folks. Murray made every mile 
in spooky good 
              shape. Wore headphones all the way home. the bus didn't make 
              
any strange and worrifle noises. the oil temp went high when I 
              pushed and 
went down as soon as I backed off.

What more 
              can you ask?
