Most people here have taken their Deuces out on the interstate, some have recovered them at almost 2000 miles. Most run around 48 - 52 mph over long distances to be safe so if you run around that it should be ok. I've talked to my AMSA buddies and they said run them at their governor (which is what I do, except downhill) as that is what the engine was designed to do. In their years in the service (30+ years each, one has retired, the other will be) they had only had 1 truck blow an engine and that was because some internal bolts weren't tight from the overhaul shop. I'll trust their hours of experience for my truck any day.
