Right now I have 2.41 rear with a 3.5 first, and going with a 215/65 15 tire. Once I can get the funds for a 8.5 rear for my 65v8 car I will have 3.08 gears. The car has to remain 100% reliable for warm weather street, and a one a year jaunt down the 1/8 mile (6 or so passes). I have given up on building a wild six and settled on a wild looking, but decent performing car. It is Fun at the current power level so I do not need to be greedy.
