SLR

#1 Post by 40Coupe » Sun Aug 27, 2006 1:00 pm

How much SLR is appropriate for a 3500-3600 lb small tire, leaf spring, 3-speed, 700 HP BBC N/A powered combo, 7200 RPM shifts?

My current SLR is 11.83:1 with 30" tires.

P.S. With the tall tires the rear gear would simulate a 4.52:1 with a TH-400.

Where's the chassis guru? I'd like to see what he has to say about this. I always thought around 10-1 was ideal ?
