What gear

[Matts94Z28]

Things are starting to line up for my s60 purchase and I am having a hard time deciding on a gear.

Right now I have a 3.73 in the 10-bolt and I can run 70 down the I with out issue, but I have been considering stepping it up to a 4.10.

I do run a 26in tire on the street and a 27x11.50 QTP at the track. I am barely in 3rd when I go through the traps as it is.

What are your thoughts?

1/4 mile?

[Matts94Z28]

1/4 mile?

Probably not... but its not out of the question

[Silver-Dollar]

How often do you drive it? What rpm stall do you have?

run a 28" tire on the street and a 26 at the track.. win win

Converter is a 36-3800 according to Cameron. It feels much tighter though.

4.10

4.56 with a 28" tire. You have a Yukon to dd

add a turbo like rob, it will loosen that converter right up! BOASTED!:poke:

[Matts94Z28]

Haha, I still want to drive it sometimes. 40mph at 4500rpm would suck.

I wish I could BOAST!!

4.10 or 3.90 if you're worried about interstate driving. Not much of a difference. Smaller cu inch motors need some gear if they're not boosted or a bunch of nitrous. That car's not light like a fox Mustang. It needs more gear.

[Matts94Z28]

If there is a 3.90 option, I will be all over it. I will have to look into it.

I hate Rob and Joe. Mr. and Mrs. Funny Pictures.

I say stick with the 3.73s I got them and I am nearly out of gear in the 1/4. But I have read that a El TEE Juan likes a lot of gear.

[Matts94Z28]

3.90 is not an option from what I am seeing.

I don't know if I will ever run through the 1/4 in my car. I haven't in the 5-6 years I have owned it.

Everything I see seems to point towards a 4.10 though.

[LXtasy]

we ran 4.10s behind the lt1 in the turtle
