Fuel will be turned up a little more once I get the dual CP3 on there. No I do not have a gearing calculator.
Yeah yeah yeah I'm working on it.
You gonna come to Clayton tomorrow? Im thinking about trying to go up there if I dont get called into work
Nope I am on my way down to IA for the EFIlive class for the weekend. I was trying to get my buddy to take my truck but he has to work tomorrow night.
There is no way in hell you can hang 4th gear the way it ran in the video. If you were only turning 4,000 rpm's you will drop 1,000 going to 4th gear. Im sorry if it sounds mean but im trying to be straight forward and honest.
I appreciate the honesty. I pulled the log and looked at it and saw I was spinning 4000rpms and only at 70% throttle. Looks like I have some more room as my tune will fuel to 4500 with no issues.
Im speaking from my experience also. I ended up going with 4.56 gears and a TC unlock switch to hang 4th gear and still at sometimes had to unlock the TC. I was trying 3.73's on toyo A/T's 285's And could hang about 4400rpms in 3rd and when i would go to 4th in the same night i would go down to 3200ish and not gain much from there. Ground speed was about the same but at the end it would just snuff out. If your on a real loose track you'll probly be able to do it specially if you are going 330+ feet
