HYDRAULIC ROLLER − Great in street
machines. Best power above 3500 rpm
but still good torque. Mild rough idle.
Largest for stock heads and intake.
2000+ stall recommended. That's from the comp cam catalog, and no I didn't pick the cam the damn old ass builder did. And as to where this thread is leading, or what it pertains to I guess I was just stating that I wasn't happy w/ the 3.73 gears, car runs ok but doesn't have enough hp to justify the 3.73 gears I guess, 4th gear on surface streets and 2500-2700 rpm drone on the highway. I mean yeah, it'll hit redline real fast but still a slow car. So, what I was wondering and asking is, would 3.27 or 3.55 be a better gear to go with and would it work ok with said cam. As far as the bucking, it wants to stall unless its above a certain rpm as where as before the rebuild you could just ease off the clutch and pseudo coast in 1st gear, that was when totally stock besides flowmasters and when it had the 2.73 rear. After the build it would do the said bucking and chugging when under 1100 rpm or so but seemed to buck less since the addition of the 3.73 gear. I assume it bucks less w/ the 3.73 since its not below 1100 or so as long.
Oh yeah PS stock rear
suspension components for whoever was asking.
