Thats why he shifts it at 6200 ? And one of them has ran a 4.56 gear and turns it 8200 ? Jim

There is nobody shifting a 396/402 375 at 6200 unless they are clueless, or bottom feeding off the bottom of the ladder.

I used to shift my 455 at 6000 on the 2-3 shift

My convertor flashes to 6200, pretty hard to make that shift in time. If you can't run the RPMs for optimal gearing than you better be good at playing the ladder to avoid the ones that do. Peak horsepower RPM and crossing RPM are two different numbers.

I was wondering when you would surface.

He knows more than anyone I have ever come across. I am stunned at the breadth and depth of his knowledge.

Gawd that was painful to be kind, but it is the truth.

You now I'm kidding, right?

Yes, I knew you were kidding. It just forced my hand at saying something nice about him.

You still owe him for the sheep.

This is what happened when Dolly crapped in my car.
