I put Tom's 5 speed conversion behind a Ford 345HP crate motor and so
far
it's great. I kept the 2.88 gears and when I took it up to TU30 the engine
was turning 1700 to 1800RPM while cruising around 75MPH. This is with the
.63OD, the .73 OD ratio would probably be more practical for everyday use
turning about 2300RPM at 75MPH.
