T5 Five speed slant six 74 Dart Sport.

No I get it and I agree to a certain point. The trick is to not puss out on the gear, like Chrysler did. They used the 3.23 and the 3.55, both of which are sorry gears for an OD transmission. More like 3.91 or 4.10.
My Spirit of ‘76 Dart Lite had the A833 OD with 2.76 gears from the factory! Without a doubt, the slowest car I ever owned, even compared to my 86 D-100 with a Slant and A833 OD, but at least that one had 3.91’s.
