Hi,
I would like to know what gear ratio I have in my rear end on my 74. I don't really want to open the rear cover from the rear end.
How else can I tell? The Vin on the block is not the original so no help there.
The only thing I know is that I've got a L-48 Engine with the 4 speed manual transmission.
RPM goes as follow:
2500 RPM @ 60 MPH
3000 RPM @ 80 MPH
3500 RPM @ 100 MPH
4000 RPM @ 120 MPH
4500 RPM @ 140 MPH
I was wondering if someone Had the same engine and transmission and would already know there gear ratio could compare the speed at different RPM and could tell me what can of gear ratio I got in my 74.
One thing to take in consideration, I've got L48 engine with Edelbrock performer intake , headers, True dual exaust, no cat, flowmasters 40's and of course the 4 speed manual transmission.
Can someone help me? Any suggestion on what might be the rear end gear ratio?
