Can you figure out exactly which speedo gear is needed for a 3.55 gear with 28" tall tires ?

That is what it proports to do.  Will have to know a tire size that is 28" tall 1st.
varialbes are tire size\aspect\diameter\gear & calculations are made, email on the way

My Cuda is running 3.91s and the car winds hard on the freeway.  65mph @ 3500rpm.  Last time I was getting on the freeway I tried to shift into 5th since I am used to my daily driver, needless to say, I shifted from 4th back into 4th.   :burnout:
