[Tigers] Transmission

[Michael Wood]

I'm running 3.31 behind my Tremec. If I was to do it over, I'd go to 3.07.

That's with a mild 302 crate motor with B303 cam.

Guess I wouldn’t really have to use 1st gear but what would be the fun in
that? Now that I’m in my 70’s I’ve slowed down some but not THAT much.
At 60 mph I’m about 2600 rpm in 5th. With my camshaft and the Webers it
works better there.

Bob,
With a 2.95 first gear and 3.73 rearend
gears, do you even bother using first gear?

Have had my T5 (2.95 first, .80 od 5th) with 3.73 power lock for 25 years
now.
Works great.

I have the same set-up; T5 and 3.55
posi.  First is a little short unless I want to impress someone by pulling
the front wheels off the ground!
Happy New Year to all!

Having installed Tom halls t5 conversion in my car I don't know why you
would mess with a worn top loader.. I saved mine and rebuilt it for someone down
the road who has to have original..I drive my car that has 3:55 LS rear and it a
real pleasure to drive. On the highway or back roads. Iwould never go back. 1st
gear is a little short, but  That's the only down side, for me, after all
it's a car, they all have comprises, Clyde
