...and some like 4, (as the original version). Cobra Daytona was a race car, it was designed for track use, not for the cruising. It is the reason of my choice: one T-10 4 ratio (from Tex Racing): 2.67, 1.75, 1.33 and 1. This gear box is combined with a 11x41 rear end (3.73) and this couple is working well on short and medium tracks. My Daytona is powered by a special 302 engine and the max power is about 7600rpm. However, below 3800rpm the available torque is not good enough and it is the reason why I don't need a 5
