Makes enough grunt to get the car moving in third gear in spite of having a 3.36 rear end and a 1.28:1 ratio for third

2020-09-05 18:00:00 UTC  

Got to admit I’m still new to car stuff, so do t really what any of those numbers mean

2020-09-05 18:00:43 UTC  

Which ones?

2020-09-05 18:01:21 UTC  

3.36 rear end and 1.28:1 ratio for third

2020-09-05 18:01:34 UTC  

Those are gear ratios

2020-09-05 18:01:42 UTC  

Ok

2020-09-05 18:02:28 UTC  

In the industry they're referred to as "tall" if they're numerically smaller and "short" if they're numerically larger

2020-09-05 18:03:07 UTC  

Shorter gears give the engine more leverage and allow it to rev quicker, so you will generally get better acceleration at the cost of top speed

2020-09-05 18:03:25 UTC  

Oh ok

2020-09-05 18:04:00 UTC  

That's why you have a transmission with different gear ratios in it

2020-09-05 18:04:13 UTC  

So does your car have longer gears?

2020-09-05 18:04:15 UTC  

Ok

2020-09-05 18:04:25 UTC  

Yes. My car has very long gears

2020-09-05 18:04:38 UTC  

What’s the fastest you’ve gone?

2020-09-05 18:04:58 UTC  

Heh. So far with this thing, just fast enough to bring it into my garage... lol

2020-09-05 18:05:07 UTC  

Lol

2020-09-05 18:05:13 UTC  

It's a project car

2020-09-05 18:05:30 UTC  

So it’s gonna take away to finish?

2020-09-05 18:05:40 UTC  

Yeah, and a lot of money

2020-09-05 18:05:45 UTC  

Awhile*

2020-09-05 18:06:01 UTC  

It will prob be worth it tho

2020-09-05 18:06:30 UTC  

Oh, yeah

2020-09-05 18:07:02 UTC  

Well good luck that thing will be sick

2020-09-05 18:07:28 UTC  

Much appreciated, bro. I got a bunch of stuff in the pipeline for it

2020-09-05 18:08:05 UTC  

Transmission was just rebuilt, and it's getting a competition shifter installed on it. Brand new flywheel and clutch

2020-09-05 18:08:19 UTC  

Nice

2020-09-05 18:08:50 UTC  

Fun shit

2020-09-05 18:09:28 UTC  

Yes very fun

2020-09-05 18:11:15 UTC  

I have an American made Honda I think.
