3:73 255/60-15
My rat rod has 3.00 with a 33/12.50-15. 2300rpm is ~80mph for freeway driving. Big block still makes the light car fairly quick
I have been trying to decide what I want for the Demon. Has 3.23 now, but I would like a tall drag radial so maybe 3.55+ will be best.

Good Morning...
Is that how it works? Too bad we can't leave for lunch.
Unacceptable! (from the really late guy)
Party at Craig's!Well off to the other coffee group. Got a lot of things scheduled this morning. Temps here upper 50's for the next week...yea!!
Cheryl is gone to her Mom's for the weekend, goes from work this afternoon. She does it once a month.
She comes home early Sunday. Really I tell her, I don't mind....
We still don't know when the kids are showing up for 'Christmas'Hey Eric...Christmas was LAST Week !!!
Not gonna start till late Probably be raining when I get out of work tonight.
The ones I've been wearing to work are about shot. Can't complain after at least 3 years of daily wear. And the pair I had before them is still OK when I decide to toss these
Yep

Good morning, reading the above, a question came to mind...I've had my Fury up to 100...probably not going to take it any faster, but any idea what rpm you'd get to at top speed? 2.76 ratio I am guessing.
Not sure if you were talking to me, but my engine is maxed about 4500rpm in its current configuration (stock). I have no idea what all the limiting factors are, wind resistance, blah, blah, blah, but it has plenty of torque being a 472 Caddy engine to keep pulling far beyond my comfort zone in this car.
That's alot of distributor cap clips...
They asked me to come in today and work some OT...
I need the $$$, so I agreed...
Then I find out that another guy in our group was asked and will be in... He's a good guy... The two other guys were asked to come in and declined, so it turns out that I was the last one offered... Now I feel like the last guy picked for the team in gym class....

Thanks, question was thrown out there for anyone to respond...waiting for coffee to kick in...makes sense though rpms are not going to get excessively high, bigger concern is how safe are you at 100+ mph.
We get vouchers from work for Red Wing shoes... We have to get steel toed safety boots with metatarsal guards for the top of the foot....
