The reality is that there is a bunch of converter slip at the 1/8 with the current combo(about 2000rpm worth……..+/- 30%).

That situation should improve noticeably with the lower gears.

Mathematically, the 5.0 gear would still have the drive shaft rpm under 6k @112mph.


Apologies, I should probably keep my mouth shut lol.


Heck no, the rest of us too timid too speak up wouldn't be able to learn anything from others stupid comments.

I'm just kidding, don't take it personally. grin

Reality check, that half the population is smarter then 50% of the people and it's a constantly contested fact.
