redline at 120! what the hell are you runnin for gears?
Just 3.73 gears. But don't forget that I'm talking about redlining at WOT in 3rd gear (1:1 ratio.) I could technically force it into OD at WOT, but if I do that, I take ona huge risk of blowing the OD band. That's why under normal circumstances, AOD / AODE cars won't shift into OD at WOT.

With a 225/55/16 tire size and an AODE tranny, at 5900RPM (redline) with 3.73 gears, I'd be traveling 121.145MPH.

Here's a handy little calculator to figure out speeds, ratios, RPM, etc.

are trhe heads gt40p's? or just gt40's?
They are the regular GT40 iron heads. I want teh lower compresion ratio for nitrous and boost. And I didn't have to worry about getting different headers. The same will apply to the fox.
