Rear gear
Have a 2000 camaro with 4.11 gear, going threw at 6000 rpm with 28x11.5 quick time pro tire ,engine is LS 365 with HYD roller cam. Can i use more gear, maybe 4.33 or 4.56?

Re: Rear gear
If some is good, more is better
if more is too much, then its just right. And the secret to going fast: Buy it, try it, then put it on the shelf. |

It's like a dyno test session. When your all said and done, you found out what doesn't work.

You guys are hilarious, brutal, but hilarious.
To answer the question can you? Sure. The question is, is it still pulling hard at 6000 or has it already nosed over? If it pulls hard to 7000, then get a gear to go through the traps at 7000. If it noses over and stops pulling (or the rate of acceleration is slower) at say 6000 then no, it will slow down or not be any better with a lower gear. I think everyone here (me included) thinks a 2000 Camaro will pull well past 6000 so yes a lower gear will benefit you. How much? Buy and try or...dyno and see where the peak is and gear accordingly. |
