Just wanted to point you guys @ this: 5th gear Feeler 80mph= 2300rpm

Lower revs, less noise on the long trips, higher mpg plus more top- end

I'm just curious at what it will do with around 280whp
hopefully it will still pull upto 160mph and beyond

Thats interesting but I probably would ever do it. no need I have a 6th gear :-)

Yeah but i heard that 6th gear is close to our 5th gearing...... ???
what rpm's are you running in 6th at 160mph?

neal.woodrow · 09-23-2009, 03:24 PM

if it will push that brick thru the air at 160

Skitish · 09-24-2009, 01:09 AM

it's not a brick...it's a shed...I can haul things. at 160 I'm at 5800 in 6th. Something like that. I've got video on youtube doing 160 in the "Brick"....search hoppej

sounds interesting even if i have no idea how it should work (and i am too lazy to read that all).
Somehow a 6th "cruise" gear should be nice to roll at 120 with 3000 or so...

As far as I know it's not a 6th gear... I think it replaces the 5th! But not sure... didn't read the hole post!

DutchNeon · 09-25-2009, 05:33 PM

Jup definately changes the gearing of fifth!!
haha no 6th carsten, then u'll need a whole new tranny

But since 5th is not a racing gear anyway, why not make it a real overdrive!
and by the way not 3k but about 2200rpm's @ 120km/h

YES you read that right 2200rpm's

Legoman · 09-26-2009, 02:09 AM

coool - even if i was thinking on 120 MPH...

But hmmmm - i like it how i can accelerate in 5th. Don't wanna downshift after every construction build...
Hmmm, i guess i wanna have a 6-speed-automatic....

DutchKingkong · 09-26-2009, 06:29 AM

youre just being lazy..
downshift... get some noise.. and feel the power

It's not 'too' bad for drag coef. It's .375, which is better than the stang... there are plenty out there worse! The NSRT was .34, which is the same as the early 0' Camaro and the Viper.
