I have two diff. ham setups for my 9" rear. 3.50locker & 4.11 spool. I swapped the 4.11s in a year ago and won't even think of putting the 3.5s back in. With 28" tall rear tires & a heavily modified wcT-5 5spd I run thru the mph trap at approx 119mph at 6-6200rpm in 4th gear. On the street 60mph equates to about 2300rpm in 5th gear. It can still motivate top end. Once...just once I watched the 160mph speedo run out of sweep at approximately 6300rpms in 5th gear. Although I miss my big block in there I knew it would disintegrate the T-5 and my alternatives were the automatic or a HD 4-spd.
Someone stop me...I've been contemplating putting the 429C-6 w/transbrake, halo & 14x32s back in.
