Awesome information thank you AJ.
So basically no point in using 1st or second OD because the Cobras will just get roasted. On hot day here maybe the Nittos could stick better.
so the only Benefit is getting from the Gv is just the 3rd OD on the highway.
so could save the $3000 and just run...
sorry forgot this thread was about my 67 cuda haha. It’s a slant 6 7.25 rear, will be easily able to change gears. All I could find are 4:10’s for that axle so I’ll be putting those in and report back
So with my t
So with my tire (26.6”), 373 gears I would be at 2750 rpm at 75mph. Not terrible, could go 355 but I think I’ll do 373 to get more acceleration.
i agree can’t compare it to a 6 speed, but I already have the 727 trans, so I’m thankful for the option.
Thanks for the help guys
Sorry man! So many numbers to try to keep track of haha
So will be running cobra Gt tires 80% of time and nitto 20% when weather is good.
Cobra size: 295 50r15 (26.6” tall)
Nitto size: 325 50r15 (27.8” tall)
gear vendor ratio is .78 is what I am reading.
what do you mean cruise speed? Like highway cruise speed. If so 70-72mph.
I originally ordered it (late Friday) because I wanted to run high gears like 3:73 or 4:10, and thought if I had a hood nitto 325 tire and could get it to stick I could have a hell of a launch.

should I just ditch the OD and go 3:23 gears?
