part of the reason of the OD 5 speed is to cure freeway rpms etc....the 4.11 doesn't help that. =)

A 3.90 rear end helps too....


How come 'ya don't see more OD 5-speeds with the 1600 4:11 diff? I know its possible because my neighbor's old 1600-2 (2 liter tii motor, super cool white panasports, etc) had that setup. Now that would be zippy around town.

Dwight, no 3.90 for me, the CA '76 3.64 diff plus the thermo-reactor plus the E12 head. A mixed bag.

Hope to see you at next week's (I think?) BA02 event...I should be there.
