Most people I see run 3.73s on a KB and 4.10s on a Centri car. I have 4.10 with my Vortech and love it.

So I can run 3.73's with a kenne bell 2.1 or 2.6? Or just one or the other?

You can if you want your first gear to be useless or have to run DRs all the time. Its stupid if you ask me. The reason people install gears is to make up the difference in lack of torque on small cubic inch engines. With the KB or a turbo, you will be putting down a lot of torque and will not need gears. Well, the turbo is a whole other story because they like load on the engine. That is for a different thread though .

Either its just traction will play a factor.

HAHA yea. I run DRs all the time. I would think even without the gears he would need DRs. I've been in a few KB cars with 3.73s and the cars was a blast. They ran MT radials though (same as me) and they could get the car to hook pretty good.
