Don,

Yeah. The wide ratio TL is a little too wide for me, but you can still have alot of fun on the track, and I bet the times are not much slower with the wide ratio trans, but when you come out of a turn, accelerate, and shift, it just seems like the split is a tad too wide, but hey, what do I know, just an amateur wannabe racer.

I get about 27-2800 rpm's @ 70 mph, although I do most of my cruising on local roads, 45-50 mph, with an occasional highway cruise.

I think you picked the perfect rear ratio, the 3.07, for your set-up, that is using the TKO600. The only other ratio I would consider using would be a 2.88.


Terry, with the close ratio TL, 1st is 2.32, and with a 3.07 rear, 1st gear multiplication is 2.32 x 3.07 = 7.12, overall gear multiplication. With a tremec, 2nd gear is 1.98, and with a 3.73 rear, 2nd gear multiplication is 1.98 x 3.73 = 7.39, and with the TKO600 with 1.89 2nd, 2nd gear multiplication is 7.05 . A little tall, but I don't think it would be a problem.

I think I'm going to give it a try. Maybe this fall or next year.

Thanks.
