Re: Another good day

Here are the two different ratio sets:-
(And the speed per 1000 rpm)

Close:-
1.................220:1................11mph
2.................164:1................14mph
3.................147:1................16mph
4.....................1:1................23mph

Wide:-
1................252:1...................9mph
2................188:1.................12mph
3................147:1.................16mph
4....................1:1.................23mph

The beauty of a 5 speed box is that with a 5th gear ratio of 0.67:1 (Tremec and such like) you would have 35mph per 1000rpm in 5th. Not much good for thrashing about but great when you want to save some fuel and your ear drums on a long run........Like going to Stoneleigh or Elvington etc.:thumb:
