[QUOTE="kevinp, post: 10318584, member: 106826"] Biggest gear doesnt always get you to the end quicker. Dont forget if you arent locking up the conveter at WOT you are going to to pull about 4-5% more rpm through the traps due to converter slippage. I would also check with a trans builder if the trans will do WOT shifts from 4th-5th-6th. Usually the OD parts are pretty weak. Also I notice the 6R80 isnt on the transmission list, mmight be an oversight but I'd check with them. They are really whacking these hard on weight, they tend to do that so the newer engines dont come in and start setting records. 3450 raceweight is going to be tough on one of these and keep everything for daily driving plus a roll bar. FWIW a 5pt bar is NHRA legal to 9.99 so save an extra 10lbs and do a 5pt, my guess is you are going to need every 10lbs you can get. Good luck and have fun with it.. [/QUOTE]
