3.27 gears for flathead v8
Hello,
I have a 1932 Ford roadster that is currently stock motor/trans/rear end. I recently picked up an original Edelbrock Slingshot intake and will also be buying a set of aluminum heads , headers so that should pick up a little more HP My car does not have fenders or bumpers so it is a fair bit lighter than what it would weigh off the assembly line. I plan on daily driving this car and where I live that requires going on the freeway regularly . My car can’t currently do this , I believe I have 4.11 so doing 65mph would be way too many rpms , I have 27.5” firestone black walls on 1940s ford steel wheels. The car won’t do much driving on hills . 1st gear is super low , gotta shift to second really quick. I was curious if these gears would work for what I’m trying to do. Or do I need to wait and save up for a Columbia OD? Kind of unsure which way to go . Not sure where the OD on the Columbia would get me rpm wise . I figure there may be some who have or know people running the Columbia units Last edited by draggin49; 03-15-2018 at 03:47 AM. |
