Re: what gear
It's easiest just to leave it in drive for testing, however I always manually shifted the auto to get a few more rpms out of each gear. What rear gears do you have? Also, how big of a shot are you going to run?

Re: what gear
It really doesnt matter because if the tranny is stock it won't go into overdrive at WOT. Like said above, I always manually shift the auto's.
