Draco,

That's the point. If you don't need to gear for over 150 MPH acceleration, the 4 speeds are fine and 5th is an overdrive.

With the TKO II, 25.7 inch tire, and 3.50 gears, at 6500 RPM 1st is 43, 2nd is 71, 3rd is 105 and 4th is 141.

But with that much HP, I think 3.27 would be better. 1st is 46, 2nd is 76, 3rd is 113 and 4th is 151.

With your engine, this would work out well.
