What Gears?? M6, Stock heads, TR224 Cam, Full Bolt Ons, 75-150 TNT.. I'm trying to figure out what gear ratio I need to run. The gar is going to have full bolt ons, TR224 cam, TNT 75-150 kit, 275/40/17 Nitto DR's. What gears should I be running.
It looks like 4.10 will only get me to about 127mph @ 6700-6800.. 3.73 will take me all the way to 137 at that rpm. I do most my racing on the street and probably wont be using the bottle much. Should I go with 4.10's? Or should I just put some 3.73's in there? Are 3.90's an option?

Re: What Gears?? M6, Stock heads, TR224 Cam, Full Bolt Ons, 75-150 TNT.. You'll probly wan't the 3.73's since the Nitto's won't hold that good.Will keep you off the rev limiter a little bit <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
Also matters on what speed you are going through the traps now.

Re: What Gears?? M6, Stock heads, TR224 Cam, Full Bolt Ons, 75-150 TNT.. I will be running a TR 224/112LSA, 150NX, and 3.73s at the track shortly with Nitto 245/50/16s. I'll let you know how it goes.

Re: What Gears?? M6, Stock heads, TR224 Cam, Full Bolt Ons, 75-150 TNT.. I would run 3.73s with the mods that you list. 4.10s are usually good to about 118-120 but it also depends on how high you will be reving the motor.
