Around a 5.60- 5.70... Depends on what your motor likes but would pick something in that range and start from there.

Wow, what part of the country you from? Most around here help when they can. *It isn't any one single thing that makes the fast guys fast*

That is the problem, no one wants to believe the truth! Not all gear change numbers have the same tooth count, Winter's, Hallibrand, not all are created equal, it pays to figure them yourself! Bob

When I had a -12 head I used a 5.80. When we got. Into the All-pro heads and the engines were stronger I had to go to a 5.69 and that turns 8500 pretty consistently. That is the truth!
