488's or 513's
Ok guys, it's time to change out the gears in the rear.
I broke a dana 60> footbraking. Gear was in car when I got it three years ago, not knowing how long it was in there before.
I think it served it's purpose and it was time anyway, no hard feelings.
It had 557's I only run 1/8 tracks and a short 1/8 mile track at that.
The old gear had me trapping @ 7800 which is alittle more than I'm comfortable with running a BBC so I'm wanting to tone it down a bit.
With good traction my sixty foots are always in the high 120's - MPH >109 - 112
Best ET was a 560 (last weekend)
Not concerned with going faster, I just don't want to slow it down much if any.
I had several guys with similar cars/combos tell me they switched from 513's to 488's and seen no difference in ET's
I have 32x14.5 slicks - 1.76 glide - 5800 rpm converter in a fairly light 69 camaro
So with that being said, what would you go with:
488 or 513
Thx in advance for any input, Cp
