2.73 gears, why so low? Nice races!

Well I actually bought this car for fuel economy at high speeds so I figured I'd optimize the gear ratios in order to cruise at 90-100 mph at barely over 2k rpms. :D

Haha but seriously I had 4.30's in there before and the car felt much faster with them. Now the car is a dog until about 35 or so lol. First goes to 55, second goes to 90, third goes to 130, and not sure after that lol. I had to make the 15 hour drive to mustang week and the rear end with the 4.30's would whine loudly at cruise, so I wasn't dealing with that. I put in a rear end my freind had from his old fox body. We were assuming it had 3.08s but when we spun it, it went about 2 3/4 times around hahaha. I got 30 mpg though and kept the rpms nice and low. It's funny I went from one end of the spectrum to the other lol. It's also almost like I got rid of my first gear and added a sixth gear if that makes sense.

I'll be building my original rear end this winter though with a more midrange gear like a 3.73. :beer:

Gotta love the sweet sound of a 5.0... Nice run.

My Bro has a '95 Cobra that's got a few tricks under the hood, can't wait to run him with my 4.10's! :) The stock 3.08's are like rowin' a boat! :)

Any more videos of these snakes?

Good runs! I'm a big fan of the SN95 cars, but they never get enough love it seems.

SVT Pille, your car sounds badass in that video you posted.

Oh jeez, why are you guys starting that high lol. The highest you should ever start is the speed you shift into second gear or a little higher imo. Dig Pille a new one! :beer:

Yup, go to my youtube channel at DVJ38er. I have a bunch of vids in "uploads" also click "playlists" then "my car" :beer:

I would say for racing people all the time yes, but gas mileage and cruising have to be awesome with those! :)

You got it man.
