I should probably clarify a bit. I just purchased a dog box, it's on the way
to Colorado. I still use a stock crank so my rev limit is 6 - 6200 RPM.
In Colorado I use the OD on the longer straights, my final drive is 4:10 .
If I go back to a 4 speed I'll run out of rev's and If I go to 3:70's I
expect
to lose some time getting off the corners. I may just have to wait until I
get the Moldex crank sometime in the future so I can increase my
rev limit.

Dear all,

I have 2 dog boxes for my Sebring TR4 with the gear sets supplied by
Bastuck; I can confirm that they are way better than the Quaife gear sets
that I run in my 2 dog boxes that I have for my TR6.

Try, you will not be disappointed.

Keith
