What is your favorite combo.
I need to stay in the 4500-6500rpm powerband. I can tach out at 7-7300rpm on the limiter. I have a spare trans I can build up now and then install... whenever. KT |

Rich - you cannot just make a statement that a set of gears as an X rpm drop between shifts. It is dependent on RPM.
For instance, on a stock /4 box, the difference between gear ratios between 2nd and 3rd is 1.498. So if you shift from 2nd to 3rd at 3000rpm, it will be a drop of 1000 rpm. If you shift from 2nd to 3rd at 7000 rpm, it will be a drop of 2300 rpm. Demick |
