Hey all, just curious if reducing my gear to a 4.10 from the 4.30's i have in my fox now would net some better et's. My theory is the car might take advantage of the torque a bit better with the 4.10's?

the car right now has edelbrock rpm heads/cobra intake/e303 cam, 70mm tb 75 pro m, T-5 with 3.35 1st gear.

the best the car has seen is a 12.7@107mph

would reducing help anything at all or am i just wasting my time?

thanks

Instead of making a gear change, you can try running some taller tires. This will also reduce the effective ratio in the rear end.
