Since turbos like load What would be a better Starting Line Ratio? rear gear 3.23 or 3.55 275 et pro tire on 10" rim Trans A-999 A-500 727 518 trying to decide which Trans/rear gear comb to run street cruiser/ weekend track car engine is .040 over 340, 9.64 compression ported edenbrock No cam yet Watching >>>>Dizuster<<< turbo kit post Was thinking about this While prepping the floor/ trans cross member for a 518 with trans shield. Only cause it needs the most clearance to fit. thanks Howard

If you are looking to make big power go with a 3.23 rear with either trans to get your slr down. Then tune with a convertor to get your power where it needs to be. Its easier to manage a looser convertor then a tight one on small tires.

Since its a cruiser I would run the 518.. you get the OD with it(but loose the input and pump gears for the normal 727 input and pump gears... either rear gear should load the engine enough.. but the 3.23 would really drop the rpms in OD when cruising... figure out the rpm that you want to cross the line and use the best rear gear

thanks,for the replies,
We are wanting to build a dual purpose vehicle.
cruise/track
mild turbo engine, easier on parts (?)
VS radical stroker
setting off car alarms every where to goes.

yeah now a days boost is the way to go. no big lumpy bumpy cams, big cubic inches, stall and non-fun highway gears. When this engine goes, the next build will be boosted for sure.

Slr is for a race car and not a street crusier. Use what ever gears that will make you happy on the street. Maybe a 3.55 to get on boost easier when crusing.

I don't know what this car weighs... but I have lots of broken 727, 8 3/4" pictures I could show you when I only had home ported iron heads, non-pro 275's, and a REAL small cam...
Eddy's, a good cam, and pro's are only going to make more power/be harder on the driveline.
Just based on that, I wouldn't bother even trying the 904. And I also would think REAL hard about putting a Dana in the car.
Just depends what kind of ET you're looking for though.

being dual purpose
on the topic of a dana
what about 4.10 dana gear running with A-518
(because that's the gear in the White Dart now.
1350 joints)
have a 3.54 gear but would have to narrow a housing.
don't want to change out the 4.10 vs 3.54
have a 518 (diesel) out of a pulling truck with good parts in it
5 pinion, hardened input shaft, billet drum, etc
could swap into the A-518??????
would the 3.54 be a better ratio ?
ET pros are 26" tall
Thanks
I know very little about setting up a turbo application
trying to learn.

Mike
was only going to rob the good parts> pinion gears, drums, input shaft since the case is cracked anyway, where it bolts to the adapter plate on the diesel
use the valve body and governor in the (Car)trans
