The heavier the car the more et will be gained using a 3 speed trans. Since Jack's car weighs 4,000 plus pounds it should really pick his car up. Going from a 2.18 low gear to a 2.75 or lower first gear should really help get the car moving and not having a big drop when you shift should help it down the track. I would bet it would be worth at least .15 on his car.
