Tko 600
I have a TKO 600 (.64) 3:55, 25.25" rear tires (tire size makes a little different) a 354 ci small block 375 rwtq. 70 mph at 2000 rpms. With the torque of this stroker I can cruise at 1500 rpm in 5th and still accelerate without downshifting. Oh yea 20.8 mpg. I had a TKO but changed to the TKO 600 because of the first gear (2.87). It's is more useable on the street with my rear end and tire combo. The amount of low end torque you have makes a big different in what trannie/ gear/ tires combo you can use. My old motor had 308 rwtq and the stroker has 375 rwtq. BIG different in the way it drives on the street with the same tires and trannie. I have 5 or 6000 miles on the TKO 600 and like it. Love that 5th gear.
