What kind of speed were you expecting?
I'd say 100 kph (60 mph) would be really good for a 377 safari.

Clutch issue, old drive belt... maybe?
Could also be the carbs... running too rich? Not getting revs?

Any drag from the brake?
Does the track spin somewhat freely by hand?

Just going through the troubleshoot motions...

Cheers

are you sure your friend didnt modify his? Im pretty sure the safaris were work sleds so they were geared real low. If you want more speed i would say gear it higher, maybe like the everest. Dont know if i would gear it like the citation though.
