Default Re: Zephyr Gears

Ratios of Z gears: (26tooth) 1st: 2.31 (to 1) 2nd: 1.57
Ratio, Ford: (28 tooth) !st: 2.81, 2nd: 1.61
(Got gear ratios by counting teeth and multipying)

To get gear ratio from eng to one spin of rear wheel, multiply,
for instance 2.31 X 4.11= 9.4941 (revolution of engine to one spin of rear, Zephyr cluster in first to 4.11 rear end)
2.31X 3.54, =8.1774
Etc.
