Gears N TPI
 

What would be the highest rear end gear ratio recommended for a stock tpi intake? assuming best 1/4 mile et was goal

3.45 would be close.

Thats what I was thinking got 3:73 right now n I'm going threw traps at 6500 ish so doubt I'm really pulling at that point got down 3 tenths from stock gears

What gear are you in (transmission) and what is your trap speed, 6500 RPM is way too high for a TPI.

Automatic by the way, Traps= finsh line. Over drive unless I'm extremely wrong haha

13.3 at 102 mph I was expecting to drop to a 13.1 with gears that's why I'm thinking I got the wrong set. Looking to port intake in future

at that ET and 102...@ 6500, you sure can;t be in OD !

:troll

102mph should be 4600 rpm with 3.45 gears and around 5000 rpm with 3.73 gears. Something is wrong with the 6500 rpm that you list, your tach is off. That is a common problem with 1991cars.

Wow thanks alot guys that pretty much sloves my issues when spring comes around I'll know what to do

Either that or his converter is slipping 20% through the lights.

The 3.07 and T700 are a great match as the auto trans first gear is great for launches.
With a manual well 3.45 may be required to get the launch just right.

Only thing I dont like is the big drop off to 2nd gear. Other than that I like the first gear being so low.
