He was a little, shall we say, abrasive. It's too bad because he had some great knowledge but...yeah, anyway, moving on.
Who isn't abrasive on this forum at times? :lol:

Agree, it's too bad.

OP, sorry about the :threadjacked:

Yeah thats odd with all the bickering odd he was banned.
I was meaning it was too bad he was such a doosh canoe.

Now, something actually about the subject at hand: I don't have a problem with final drive ratios. What I DO have a problem with is the TRANS ratios. That first gear is stupid. I don't need to go 53 MPH in first gear in a Mustang.

Agreed but the rear gears seemed like the more simple correction.

The gear ratios are perfect for a track car, which is what I thought you and I bought? If you change the final drive (lower) make sure the axles, et al can take the increased torque. I realize the GT350 axles are beefed up, but, without doing the engineering, it's a crap-shoot.

Sorry man but I gotta call BS on this one....if your first post said he had great knowledge but was a douche canoe, I would not have agreed w the statement.

He had good info, and worked on his own stuff. It's nice to have folks like that around, whole reason for the forum IMO. Maybe he will make it back
