Well I dont think Im gonna trap 125 mph, so Im going to put in 120 into the equation.

4.10 x 120 x 336 26.5 = 6238 Then if I figured in 200 rpms for converter slippage, that would bring me up to 6438. So would that big a good choice? Ive been told that you want to pass the traps a couple of hundred rpms above your peak hp.

Will there be any different in 60 ft. between running a 26 and a 28? Just wondering, but I know I need to worry about having enough tire at the top end. Im going to have my limiter set at 6900, maybe 7000. I want to pass the traps around 6500-6600 because that would be 200-300 rpms over my hp peak.

Do they make a 26x11x15 ET Drag?

26X10X15 and a 120 MPH will be fine w/4.10's...
