Rob...I dont know how you drive but I'm usually in 3rd gear before leaving an intersection and I'm currently running 3.55's. Going from 4.10's to 4.56's is like going from stock to 3.73's. It wouldnt make that much difference I'd say. He might also roll around on 28" tall drag radials on the street or something to take some of the gear out. Running a 28" tall tire takes .4 off the gear ratio so he'd be running a little lower(higher numerically) than a 4.10 gear.

Ummm a few weeks ago you were flamming me about 4.10s and 4.30s saying that its to much gear for my setup, even after I clearly explained a 4.30 rear gear with a 28 inch tire is the same as a stock wheel and tire on 3.90s, but now your justifying 4.56s, boy im gonna take u out behind the chicken coop and slap you one good.

Theres no doubt a 2v can run, same as a 4v. But if I was building a track specific car there is without a doubt pushrod is the way to good especially from a cost stand point.

I don't think the guy's car sees anything but the track IIRC

Do it, you won't...NO *****! I apologize man. I've been doing constant research on gear choice lately and been finding out some good info and learning a lot.

Yes. Pushrod for a trak car. I dream of a fox coupe with a 408w.

Oh im gonna better wear a skirt cause ur gonna wish u were born a woman, haha. Also setting pinion angle was pie also teej gonna slap u another one for that too. But i ended up with4.10s cause im not rockin 28s for awhile

Yea the car doesn't seem like a street car to me...but thats beside the point lol. I mean i wouldn't ever make my car a serious track car...just a sleek/sexy street/strip car.

I would find some other car to beat on that hard...but thats just me.
