Hi!
I own a '01 GT w/ some bolt-ons running 12.94 @ 108 mph. Until now, the best slicks / gear combo for me was 26x10 and 4.10. It could use the whole power band and optimize my time.
Next spring, I'll install a V2 SQ-Trim w/ Anderson 4" power pipe so I should trap @ around 115 mph which is WAY too high for a 26x10 and 4.10 combo.
Here's the problem:
1) The car currently sits on Sportlines so 28" slicks will obviously rub
2) I'd like to keep the 4.10 gear because Vortech people claim it eliminates any lag found w/ a 3.73 or 3.55
3) M/T don't offer any 27" slick which would be the best for me
What would you do?
1) Change the gear for a 3.73 and stick w/ the 26" slicks
2) Install higher springs and control arms to ensure that 28" won't rub
3) Try to find rare 27" slicks, ex.: M&H ??
Thanks for your help.
