Re: 5th gear conversion

["Julie Macfarlane" <juliemac57@hotmail.com>]

My FF has a .71. I like the lower number as at 65 in 5th I am only running 
2200 rpm. Just entering the power band.
My Rabbit had a much higher number reaching 3500 rpm at 65 in 5th.

The difference between the .71 and the .75 will result in a shift of only a 
few hundred rpm over the range.

>>THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Never be afraid to try something new.
Remember that amateurs built the ark. . . . .
Professionals built the Titanic.
