Use this common gear spread:
3.19
1.95
1.40
1.00
Shift all gears at 7,000 RPM
1-2 shift = 38.87 % drop = 2,721 drop = 4,280 RPM
2-3 shift = 28.21% drop = 1,975 drop = 5,025 RPM
3-4 shift = 28.57% drop = 2,000 drop = 5,000 RPM
Not sure if that helps...
I had one of my best years ever last year and I'm already ahead of 1st quarter of last year. Since I made the decision to go back in Stock, i've been pushing all parties involved. Just found out the other day the wheels I had made are not right so Monday I'm having another pair made, it will be 2 weeks. Hopefully my new custom bell housing will be done this week. Cam just received last week. Heads are done except final cut to CC spec. Short block just needs rings & bearings to assemble.
My goal is engine dyno within 3 weeks. New floors in car & fix chassis issues within 1 weeks after that. Garrett Monde is building me a new set of headers. I want everything within 90% of track readiness by end of April.
I'm changing all fuel lines, a data logger and a few other things that need to get done. Test / tune summer (aargh!), NHRA event in the fall.

Then why did my dual 7 came back without this being done? I had to complain to Rob to get this done ,After paying the $900.00 to rebuild the clutch . I paid to have it fixed the first time and didn't question the price. I just wanted it fixed. . No song and dance just fix it. Rob did as I asked and replaced the heat sheilds, the second time around. But, there should have not been a second time around.
Any body want to buy a Jerico and Advanced 7 and a clutch program from Mike Sullivan for the Dual 7? E mail me at mark_madison @sbcglobal.net And I will provide all prices and product info.
