Gearing for my 460rwhp Bird, for the track.
Thinking gearing the car to help out at the track because I beleive the complement the MS3. Car will mainly be run 1/4 mile (not a big 1/8th mile fan), on a 26 inch mt DR on 15 inch Bogarts.... So I'm leaning towards 3.73's, unless someone knows where to find some 3.90's? The gear calc gives me 123 MPH @ 6500 in 4th with 4.10's which is leading me to beleive I will just barely tick the limiter at the end of the track, plus I would rather have a little room to grow as the car made 460 to the tires on an ls6 intake, without and elec water pump, so I think there is a little more left in this thing.
Any help on your set ups and trap speeds would be nice.
Car has stock 1le suspension at the moment.

i have 4.10s and the mn12 tranny 4th gear w/ 26" tires will take me to 130.
id say go to a 3.73s cause that will take you to 135, or go to a 28" tire and get 4.10s
hope that helps
