Of course it will work... duh! But you might be out of gear on the top end.

I think I did some calculations awhile ago...and a 28" tire with a 4.10 gear brings the effective ratio down to a 3.89 or something...

On 26" tires with a 3.73 gear and 100 shot, I'm right at the rev limiter.

eric01ss 12-24-2008 08:13 PM

car is for 1/8th mile only and yeah 28's bring the 4.10's down to like 3.74!

evilbeef54 12-24-2008 08:14 PM

so whats the question?

eric01ss 12-24-2008 08:21 PM

if the stall and gearing will be enough for the setup? and will it work well with the nitrous?

Stock cam?

I'd say that you could run it through the 1/4 and still be fine. It really depends on the converter and how much it loosens up on the bottle.

sleeperstyle 12-25-2008 01:35 PM

with that small of a shot, i think it'll be fine. what are you willing to rev the car to?

eric01ss 12-25-2008 04:30 PM

time to get a real stall and drop to a 26" tall tire then

eric01ss 12-25-2008 05:57 PM

i'm talking about to take advantage of that big of a cam. That cam wants to rev you want a pt4400 type converter with a cam that big. If your going to run a 28" tire might want to step up to 4.30 with that cam

A pt4400 and nitrous don't go together. He had that converter and got rid of it to spray. I had another buddy that tried to spray at 100 shot on a pt4400 and it didn't work out to well.
