Default Re: Experiences With 3.27 & 3.54 Gears

I in stalled a 3.27 ring and pinion in our 35 Ford V8, thinking it would fly. Nope. It only pulled hard. Starting out in first gear was like starting out in second gear with a 3.78 to 1 rear end. And you are stuck there. It died on hills, and generally was a big disappiontment. I love my Mitchel on our Model A, because it's the best of both worlds...3.78 around town, and overdrive for out on the road.
