RE: New engine start-up

Why are you not happy with the 4:10's? I love my 4:30's. 1st, 2nd and 3rd are mean as hell and pull really hard. 5th gear at 75 mph runs about 2500 RPM. All around performance is great. Drivability is great. 3:55's are more of a top end highway gear. Of course the car is a toy. Had it almost three years and it currently has 7000 miles on it. Here are my SHIFT CALCULATIONS.

Mainly because I can't even blink before it redlines in 1st and 2nd. I don't go to the track, so I really don't need more than the 355's. It sure is a fun ride, isn't it?

Hey Stephen, you are using question marks when I think you mean to use periods at the end of sentences. Sorry bud, that's just the teacher coming out in me.

Yeah, dizzy is an accepted substiture for distributor on most car and truck discussion forums. I am a member of several, and it is used all the time.
