Sorry bout that Larry.... Yes it takes MORE power to run a 4.86 then a 4:11
and the gears aren't deep enough into the 2 range.... we have run 2:75
gears several times and don't want to lose that option....
Winters is making a custom quickchange for the LSR hobby right now.... its
about to come out and it has a 3:08 gear set in it.... which will be
exceptional for our type of racing. Problem I see right now is that they
cost 4k each.... and quite frankly that is too much for the Camaro....
Joe Timney and I have been talking about a 3:60 set that fits in the common
Winters Carrier and ultimately that makes the 4:86 quickchanges out there
buyable.... but you still have to think some about the total cost of the
package completed to see if it's a Deal...
