It may be a high speed gear but it's not a short gear. Resident expert, I don't think so, but nice try.

High, tall, long legged all mean the lower/smaller numerical number where I came from.
Where a low, short, deep gear = higher/larger numerical number
4.56 is a low,or deep gear
2.94 = high, tall gear.

I was refering to your interpretation of what he said. Yes I agree he is the resident expert. Of course Doc you are right and every other car guy in the world is wrong. Go to sleep tonight feeling good that you have changed the minds of thousands of other people to your way of naming the way rear end gears are refered to. But don't expect the change to happen overnight. It may takes decades to get evryone in line.

I think you're the only one who understands the "reverse logic" on how a low number ratio is "short"

I understand what you're saying, high, low, tall, short, big, small...2 is less than 3, therefore 2 is shorter than 3. therefore a 2.x gear ratio is shorter than a 3.x gear ratio.

but...you're the only one who sees it that way


and you're right, I made up the 20mpg claim, because I couldn't remember what you were actually getting, but I remember that it was high teens with a carb that nobody likes and a TALL gear ratio in the 2.x range.

as for your odd and different combo...nothing wrong there. I think that's why most of us like Mopars....they're different and not boring.


(that's why I'm here. At the Academy, Camaros were everywhere, classics and late model. same with Mustangs, same with Corvettes. they were boring. if I got one of those, I would be "just another lemming following the crowd" no thanks! )

Come on Doc you know that height has nothing to do with gear ratios. You are the one comparing apples and watermelons. But we all know if some one said the sky was blue you'd come back with something else.

Like I said doc. I understand what you're saying, and your twisted logic. Larger number means taller number. But my point was that you're the only person I know who thinks that way when it comes to gear ratios.

He's just trolling you... never engage in a battle of wits with the unarmed. I've had enough of his "facts". Another one for the blocked list. <plonk> That'll make this thread about 75% "shorter" so I can read through it "faster"

DrCharles .. the people-mechanic ... I hope that you "work" on people better than the skills you display here on your automotive knowledge.

Wits ? ...and the "battle" of ? ...I would like-that with you ...BRING IT.

And you have a BLOCKED LIST ? ..... so that is what your Mommy told you to do ? .... shows-me what a candy-azz you are !

And just a note for you keyboard-commandos.... I come-after NO ONE here. JUST LIKE what happened here ....this Dr ... throws a cream-pie at me ... and he gets TWO right-back at him.
