The perfect fit

[Luca11]

Hey Guys, what gear would be good with this combo bored 351w & supercharger. Its a 5pd.

 

[ryan218]

3.55's

3.55's or less.

 

[Luca11]

3.55

Why 3.55, what would be the differents with 3.73 and 4.11 with that combo.

 

[ryan218]

3.55 not to much gear but enough... 4.11's...good luck with traction if you get on it...

4.10's are too much for a 5-speed, even WITH traction, and even on a stock engine. I'm just about at redline in 4th when I hit the traps, and I've only done a 15.0 @ 98 MPH with a crappy 2.2 60-foot.

I'd say 3.55's would be about right. Definitely don't go any higher than 3.73's.

Its not even close to redlining in the traps. I run 4.10s and a T5. I run 13.4 @101mph and I still have RPM left.

You'd never get traction.

yeah i run 4:10's and a T-5 and my first time at the track i ran a 13.9 with RPM's left too. And my motor is bone stock.

i have 3.73's and i hate them. i want to "cruise" in my car, but when im on the highway going 65-70 im taching out at around 3 grand. i want that lower so im thinking about 3.55's or 3.27's

at 65-70 in the 86 were at a little over 2,000 rpm in 5th.

4.88s or 5.13s at least. You want to use all 5 gears in the 1/4.
