could it be lower? Cause this thing feels low--like ALMOST too low gear for a street car to me. But the tach it way off and it has open exhaust right now so that could be throwing me off. Also, it spins both wheels--I thought that was wierd. I have been building this car since October and Sunday was the first time for me to drive the car really, so I don't know what kind of fuel mileage I am getting yet. I am telling you it feels looow though. I keep forgetting to spin the tires and count the driveshaft revolutions when I have it on jack stands.
How does that work anyway? Count the drive shaft revolutions per one revolution of the tire, right?
This is true. My friends car (an ex-4cyl auto) had a rear with 3.73's. Its in my 90 for now as a loaner until I feel like putting the rebuilt 8.8 back in it. I guess that would be a good spring project for my next weekend off.
how much hp can the 7.5 take? I have one in my car and an 8.8 is pretty low on the list due to budgetary reasons. I have a gt40 motor that will be in the 275 range.
I looked at the tag and wrote down what it said, but I left it in my office. 373 was at the beginning of the second row of numbers though. I don't know how much they can take--but I plan to give it hell. Is it wierd that it is a posi?
