Speed per gear
I guess the 5/6 speed guys will be answering this . What can you get out of each gear .. Looks like 40 something in 1st and 60 something in 2nd and 3rd is in the 100 range and I chicken out after that.

Re: Speed per gear
Assuming 6500 rpm redline mine would be:
1st - 34 mph 2nd - 52 3rd - 70 4th - 92 5th - 117 6th - 147 Assuming 7500 redline: 1st - 39 mph 2nd - 60 3rd - 81 4th - 106 5th - 135 6th - 170 All theoretical, obviously. There is a good calculator for it here: http://www.f-body.org/gears/

Re: Speed per gear
That's it ! ! ! Only 160 MPH I won't even be able to get airborne <LOL>
Of course this is all in theory ,, some care can't pull Red line in anything above 3rd gear. |

Re: Speed per gear
None of this so far has applied to the stock trans. Look up the ratios and plug them into the calculator and see.
