ok if the rearend is toast, I'm thinking of going 3.23 gears for the road course runs, how much time would I loose at the track??

Now remember with the 4.10's I have now the stall is about 3500 and finishes the 1/4 at the top of 3rd at 5200 rpms.

with 3.23 gears the stall should go up to 4200 and finish top of second gear at around 6k rpms.

so you see the delema ahhahaaa

on another note 3rd gear comes in at around the 330' mark so for 990' its the 3rd gear run.

 

put the same back in or get a 3.73

what road course runs are we talking about?

 

well after doing some research the 3.23 gears will put me crosing the traps at 6700 rpms at 106

the usuall road course in texas and abroad.

 

i dropped a full second from 3.23's to 4.10's

 

stock times or after modded times??

 

Bone Stock

 

I would venture to say 2-3 tenths.

 

yes bone stock it will make a big difference, now modded to hell and back it could be diff.

what gears is that pink truck running???

 

I don't know Kevin, 3.23's are deff. gonna hurt it at the track and that converter will be looser with them. If you could get a gear to finish in 2nd and not short shift right before the line, that might only cost you a couple tenths.

 

yeah I will finish in 2nd with the 3.23 gear around 6800 rpms
