Wow,

A lot of information! I have used an online gear calculator that shows with the .84 5th gear and a 3.73 gear 70 comes up around 2500, with a 3.42 the same rpm gives me 76mph.

I suppose my real question is where is the sweet spot for the LM7? Think I will try one of the LSx forums unless anyone knows better?

Thanks for the input.

P.
