Well at least you can figure out what your gear spread is and what rear gear you have now...
Bet that new clutch feels nice though. Mine was great once I did it. What did you end up running?

feels great, went with a McLeod street pro clutch
the numbers on the case didn’t match the website serials to get the gear spread so I had to ask Richmond no response yet
I did figure out I have a 3.73 rear, felt steeper to me must be a honking first gear in that trans

Nice. I'm running the super street in mine and like it alot aside from that one day it decided to slip lol.
3.73 is still pretty aggressive though. If you know for that's it you can figure out the gear with a GPS and rpms like I had to on the 67... 2.56 lol.
