gt or cobra

96GTS. Yes, Tranny Gear ratios are the same between the T-45 used in the Cobra, and the ones used in the GT T-45 (Well now the T-3650). The rear gear is the same for both, 3:27-1.

If you start considering Torgue curves, Power Curves, and peaks, and broadness of the Power band, thats when you start thinking of gearing. Kinda like when trying to calulate Shift points.

If you look at a Cobras Power and Torque band, and a GT's power and Torque band, and consider in your Shift points and the RPM you fall back at when shifting you'll see what I mean.

I explained that all in my previuos post though. Just in diffrent words. *** for Lightings, There quite a few of those around here also, along with SS's, WS-6's, even a few Saleens, at least two per cruise night, and I'd hardly call Fayettville a booming city, Growing yes.
