Keith after looking at the charts and gear ratio I can see where this 
wouldn't work for you. On 28 inch tires at 7000 rpm and 2.75 gears you would 
run 194.7mph. This truck I'm working on won't be that fast hopefully 
somewhere between 150 or 160mph. I have a 4:86 QC that would take a ratio of 
about 3.5 at 7000 to reach around 150mph. Like  Mom says Poor People Have 
Poor Ways!!!! Larry Mac
