[QUOTE="Fox Fan, post: 16126727, member: 49259"] Optimal rear gear at the track takes you through the traps in 4th gear at your optimal shift point (redline in your case, I think). This is just a mathematical calculation and you can use an online gear/tire/speed calculator for. If you want to go with taller gears for the street (most do), then that's just personal preference at that point. So for example, if with 600-ish rwhp you can get a 130mph 1/4, then a 3.73 will probably just about right. It would hit redline (6500) at 133mph. But, this is only about a 5% difference from stock, which is hardly noticeable. So, I wouldn't make the swap from 3.55s. [/QUOTE]
