« on: December 26, 2007 - 03:07:38 PM »
At 2200 rpms, with the bf goodrich tires 275 50 15 on the car with 323 gears, should this be around 55 mph?

Good. I also forgot to mention 4 spd.   I was hoping it was close to that.  I need to fix my speedo.

vinb - Thanks for the link.  That's pretty cool.  I don't currently have a tach so I've been real curious what I'm turning on the highway with 3.91s.

If you have a portable GPS unit you can take it with you to verify MPH's.

Mine says 70 when going 60.LOL

Just for reference, I have 3.91 gears and in OD they equate to 3.05.
I'm running 60mph @ 2,200rpm, perhaps slightly lower if anything. That's with 275/60s.
