Th400 Or 4l80e
Th400 Or 4l80e I Have A M6 T/a With H/c Motor......i Am Wanting An Auto But Dont Really Know Which One Is Right For Me.....i Dont Drive It Much At All And I Am Really Leaning Towards More Of A Race Car Than Street Car....what Is The Max Gear That I Could Run In These Trannys...i Have Moser 12 Bolt With 4:56's Right Now....is That Too Low For The 1/4 Mile...-
I WOULD BE RUNNING A 3500 STALL OR SO....THE MOST I WOULD DRIVE IT WOULD BE 50 MILES EVERY OTHER WEEK. I am looking to be putting down 600-650 hp after my engine build..I just didnt want to have to change my gear setup if i didnt have too

Like what was stated earlier... the tire size and camshaft will dictate the gear you will need. $.56's can be too much for a 1/4 mile pass.
We run a 4.30 with a 33/16 tire on the Nova, are at 1150 h/p N/A and run through the traps ~ 7900 rpm in the 1/4. It would need a 5.14 and a 30/16 tire for the 1/8 mile. (But this is not a daily driver as you can tell.)
So you can see the importance of tires. Need more of your equation to answer your question!
Hope that helps.

a 3500 stall is a little weak if you ask me. im putting a 4000stall in my car with a cam only set up. and our race car has 4.88s with a 31 inch tall tire, but you didnt mention what size tire your running....
