Calling 2.97 Magnum Owners and Users

Anyone else with a 2.97 that can post a video?

Just curious, but what are you hoping to see in the video? Are you wanting to see the rpm drops between gears?

Yes, just curious how drastic the change is over stock. I’ve loaded it up in forza and can get close to feeling it but it’s just a game.

Magnum 2.66 with 3.73's here .... Using basic math for first gear, 2.66 x 3.73 = 9.92 per revolution --- Using/running a 2.97 with 3.27's = 9.71 per revolution .... So you'd actually be holding first gear longer!

3.27 now from a solid rear. Plan to stick to that or possibly 3.55 or 3.73. I dont plan on dragging the piss out of the car but may do some digs along with the occasional 40-140 but mostly a nice streetable fast car is my "goal"

My opinion is stick with the 2.97, it’s much cheaper to change out rear gears that transmissions. I would recommend at least a 3.55 rear, 3.73 if you want a short first gear
