I guess I'm the minority. Unless you have good traction, the smaller gear will allow you to launch more easily and consistently. People always ask why I don't have 3.73s. The answer is that my lx spins the radials in first and second, but with 3.73s it would probably spin in third so why bother.
The Quarter Jr. Software program indicates that the difference in e.t. between a 3.55 and 3.73 gear is about a 0.10 seconds and 1 mph. ------------------ Russ L '91 LX Procharger, 3 row intercooler, extrude honed Cobra intake, Mac full Length Headers, 30# inj., 73mm C&L, 75mm tb, E303 cam, 289 rods, ported E7 heads, MSD, T-Rex w/255 lph Walbro, 5 lug conversion, Cobra R wheels, 3.27 gears and Moser Axles. |
