RPM question
Either I haven't found the right gear calculator, or I don't know how to make them answer my question
My question is this....
If I'm running a v8 at 70 mph, what's the difference in RPM's of a 6th gear of a LT1 T56 with a 3:42 rear end
vs...
same car, but running 70MPH in 5th gear of a T5 with a 3:08 rear end
stock tires, 245/50/16 with a 26" height
