Not Ranked
Here is another performance result test. The Corvette is equipped with a 3.36 final drive and quite a bit more weight. It still comes up with some pretty impressive performance stats! 
I want to change my 4th gear from 1.1 to .82, but I have been told that isn't possible with a toploader. The .82 will drop the cruising rpm to a comfortable zone and with that 3.54 final drive, still have lots of zap in 4th gear. SPF runs a 3.46 final drive as standard in their cars. I have heard good things about this final drive ratio. The owner of the local SPF dealership swears by it!

A decent 427 - not the worst, not the best, will go from zero to 100 mph and back down again to zero in less than 14 seconds. All thing considered, you can put together a pretty good argument that the 427 Cobra is the ultimate performance car, judged on any basis you want to name."
