A while back I asked a question about gearing.After reading all the info people put on the question I installed a set of 4.56 gears
before I had the 3.90.
But before that I went to the track again to get the last feedback that I could.The results were 8.86@154mph @25psi.
The 60ft was a 1.35.
Yesterday we went to NED and tested the new gearset.Lowered the boost 3/4 turn to 22psi.
First run was a 15psi launch that netted a 8.62@156mph.Wow!
That resulted in a 1.30 60ft.
The last run decided to come out hard.A 20psi launch netted a 1.27 60ft,5.45@128 1/8,8.52@158mph.
All I can say is what a difference some gear will do.
Thanks to everyone who posted on the topic.

VERY nice!!!! :D

Could we get some more details on your set up? Tire size, converter stall, how high are you spinning the motor, weight, etc.... Thanks!

Tony,

That is great. Now we need to get that car to launch in the 1.20s
and turn the boost up. This is going to get fun!!!

Congratulations on the improvement!
