Default Re: Final Drive ratio, will a 3.25/1 be too steep ??

With the overdrive I would go with 3.50. It will work much better in town and a lot more fun to drive. Just a FYI I would have went with the ford 8" . Much lighter rotating mass as well as the entire drum to drum weight. you will not brake one with a flathead. It sounds like you have a sweet setup regardless, Tim
