Re: You have to love to drive it!

via Summit's calculator I plugged the bottom three values to arrive at a rear end ratio:
Solve For
Gear Ratio (ex. 4.56) @ 2.74

RPM (ex. 5000) @ 2300

Tire Diameter (in.) @ 28"

MPH (ex. 45) @ 70mph

Would I be able to pull away from a stop sign with that tall a ratio?
Will my mild 350 with a T350 be able to pull a 2.74 at 50mph? Right now I am in third by 40mph.
Daily driver and don't care if I can smoke the tires.
