Default Re: Woodfin's SS GT/TB construction series

Dwight, you and I think alike and I was considering the same question.

Anyway, my original order is on the Brown truck and will arrive tomorrow {Thursday}
I plan to install it and give it a whirl [so to speak]

Just for the math exercise Gary Hettler tells me to shift at 8,000 - 8,200. If someone want to estimate the finish line RPM use a 5% converter slip, 32 x 14 M/T bias tire, 6.00 rear gear.

When I do the initial testing it will be at Texas Motorplex 1/8 mile bracket race. That will let me get a feel without the 1/4 finish line buzz.
