Guys.....
I know that you have been asked this question a thousand times, but this is 1001 !!! Best all around rear gearing...........street/highway
I have a Blown Big Block 55 Chevy with the following:
496 full roller motor
8:71 blower running heads up (1 to 1)
Dual 950 Holley carbs
Comp Cams Roller (a little better than BDS Stage 2 Race Cam)
Turbo-400 1/2 built
Full Chris Alston back half
31 X 21.50 X 15 tires
American Racing 15" DEEP rears
Alston/Ford housing (9")
35 spline axles with big bearings
Four-Link suspension
I can do the calculator formulas, but what is your personal recommendations for the final gearing for mostly street and some highway. I say that I'm not going to run it, but there are others that have said the same thing !!! This is mainly for two old people to get hamburgers in. I am looking for best all around by experience, not calculator.
Any and all recommendations are greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Skip
