That seems strange to me since Jeff has 3.15 gears and he was less than 2 tenths faster on E85 in better DA compared to my run on 93. You guys might be right but I am not sure you have enough data to make that call. I can throw the 3.15 in my car and see how it goes but I am going to see what the 3.73 will do first.
I know someone who threw 3.73 in his auto coyote ran 93 octane but had cobra jet manifold, cold air intake, headers , exhaust and was running consistant low to mid 11s , swapped to 3.31 gears and was running 10.90s. He said 3.73 was getting him into overdrive too quick so it was slowing him down rather then utilizing the power band a little more . Just passing over what I've heard . Give 3.73s a few more runs
Where is the proof of that ?
When you have a stall , it will get the car into overdrive too quickly instead of utilizing the power band a little more, I've spoke to many auto guys and that's what the deal is from what I hear
Correct, the guy Im speaking of I just spoke to now, he had a circle D 5c solenoid trans brake , stock transmission
I just don't see that happening with a 28 tall tire i'm using shifting at 7300 .. .. Either way I only run the 1/8 mile these days and I think the 3.73s would help my 60 times ..
I think they would help 60ft too unless it spins going to second. I was having traction problems going to second but I was on 19" nto5r and prep was not good. I'm going back on 305 45 17 Mickey e.g. street r
1/8 mile your good then I agree keep 3.73
