Cov Climax diff ratio

["John Harrigan" <harrigan@picknowl.com.au>]

Hi,
My 1937 Coventy Climax 4-4 lacks acceleration. It takes 30 seconds for 0 -
50 mph
I have a recon motor. and a Meadows g/box.  I know the diff ratio should  be
5.0:1
I have a 4,7:1 diff ratio in the car now.
Has any one put a 5.5:1 diff ratio in to their 4-4 and did it improve the
acceleration?
Also any one with a Cov/Climax motor : what mods have you done for extra
power??
