Excaliber,

You're absolutely correct about the gearing: CSX 2019 ran with 5.14 gears and turned 7,500 RPM with an Iskenderian cam. The stock hi-performance cam was good for up to 7,000.

The most common problem encountered by both Randy Berry, the original owner of 2019, and Ed Hedrick who owned the Costilow & Larson car, was rear end breakage. No complaints about the motor or tranny.

Hal
