What gears should I go with in my stock 5.0 mustang? ;D YES!! First gear thread of the new forum!! I had to do it! lol
3.73s. But first what kinda driving do you do? Do you hope to visit the track or do you allready do so? Do you plan to add a supercharger or turbo down the road?
AHAHAHA!!! Matt you thought I was serious!! LMAO!! I was just messing around. You know how there's like 3857245827590 gear threads on stangnet, I wanted to make the first one here. lol
Nice one Chris - I am SO sick of that stuff (esp since I am one of the very few who does not like excessive gearing). But since I want to fit in here, my recommendation: 6.85's if a stick and 7.27s if an automatic. The 6.85's will help you Chris since you can start out in 5th gear.
NICE!! I won't ever have to shift while racing! Of course, I can only do 10mph, but I'll get there QUICK! I'd be churning 4200rpms at 70mph in 5th!
I'd be curious to know the answer to this, and for that matter, roughly what speeds would be achieved at 4000 & 6000rpm in each gear?
Yea, I just got a set for my aode and want to know how much time they'll cut off my 1/4 mile and what rpms i'll be at w/ od on doing around 70mph.
couldnt help ya there, there was a calculator for speed/rpm when adding gears sorry but I dont have the link any more.
