Gear swap

You know, thats what I hear....but thats not what I felt. I felt a car that from a trip to the gear shop, a three hour swap, and a drive home that felt way more responsive. The mid range response in any gear was much more "attentive" and when I launched the car it didnt seem to drag itself to the top of first...it got there in a hurry. We calculated more like 350-400rpm at the shop and next to my wifes Jeep it was 300rpm on my tach so I'm not sure what to think about the calculations. I'm just excited becuase its the gear I wanted and I got it in an even swap my 4.30 to a 4.56 and a friend put it together with my help for a grand total of.....$0 :)

Oh yeah you will feel a difference. The formula for RPM at a giving speed is

Gear x MPH x 336 / tire diameter = RPM

4.56 x 60 x 336 / 28" = 3283 RPM
