I think 4.30's would be a great compromise.

Well...personally, I wouldn't go lower than 4.10's. It's what I'm running now. It's low enough to give the car tons of pull in all gears but not sacrifice drivability.

I find that it truly compliments the T45 transmission in such a beautiful way.

You're a troll.

On a B head motor with IMRC deletes N/A there no question in my mind 4.30s, maybe even 4.56 with a bigger rear tire. People fail to realize the lack of low range torque the B head makes, which is even worse once the IMRCs are gone. You guys know that Ford Racing does actually make any gears right? Motive makes t he gears for FRPP, so a motive gear is the same quality just two different boxes really.

So you're saying ford puts motive gears in their cars from the factory?

haha! That's a funny joke!

Hey I know what you mean whitey. I don't frequent any other forum, really. I mean there are enough people with enough knowledge and stinky opinions to fill a question with useful information and ridiculousness at the same time.

Oh on a sidenote...I LOVE your wheels. I am dying to get my hands on a set of them. As long as they're not the GT wheels. From this angle they look like FR's. I'm sure they are. They look good though dude. I'm trying to get away from this whole black/white sinister look.
