You need to say what you want, the more info. the better & show you sig. so they can see your setup. There is an ideal strip gear which is not ideal for high speed cruising (w/o O/D). The factory tries to gear it as a good compromise.

True ...I am guessing that 3:55 or 3:70 is the best for my setup with the turbo 400

3.55's get me to 70mph at abt 3K rpm.....not exactly ideal for freeway cruizin w/chambered pipes, but its great for the street :D :D :D

I'd go with 3.55. Kind-a in the middle of the road so to speak :cheers:
