gear?

SlowJoe · 01-21-2007, 02:07 PM

At cruise in fifth at 85mph i am turning about 2200-2300 rpm.Does that sound like stock gear?

QWKSNKE · 01-21-2007, 02:12 PM

yep

SlowJoe · 01-21-2007, 02:31 PM

i really do not want 4.10s i am thinking like 3.55s

3.73 will wake it up and still give good highway rpms. 3.55 are in mine and fit very well for what I do. I want a lower gear tho.

a mod motor car will do great with a 4.10.i would either do that or a 3.90.

SlowJoe · 01-21-2007, 03:00 PM

with a 3.90 what do u guys think 85 cruise rpm will be?

TheJeanyus · 01-21-2007, 03:15 PM

Is it a 5 speed or automatic? With an auto I'd definitely go with 4.10s. With a 5 speed I'd probably do 3.73s.
