changing gear ratios from 410 to 350

Ken I have been thinking the same on the lower gear change. John I would like those numbers also when you get them. I'm figuring that 4.56 is not enough and may as well go to 4.88 or more if going to do it. It will require stretching the 1st and 2nd gear shift points though or You could rap it up fast enough to blow it easier. Not necessarily but it improves the possibility with the shift points not spread out farther but, leaving the torque management out completely. I will have to rebuild My tranny for sure for that though. If I do it I cannot wait to see My cousins face again the next time We race.

John what is Your thought on that. Is 4.56 just messing around and not really getting the job done. With the lower gears I can help do allot of things with tuning and change shift points etc. We are working on getting better and imaginative with the tuning. It just seems that 4.56 is just not going far enough unless You say it is plenty at 4.56 John. let me know what you think.
I owe you a phone call and will get with you Sunday night. I need to make another trip out to see You so I may do that in August if You can put up with Me a few days. I would like to see more of Princeton University and the 200 year old homes You restore. That was one of the very interesting things i saw while out there with My daughter was the beautiful homes You restored. interested also in seeing the old dorms you were getting ready to do. Well anyway I'll call at the usually time on Sunday. If You want to wait till then on the gear stuff fine if not let it go here so all can learn.

I'm going to put a team together to take on Predator and Fox racing for the fastest Hummer challenge. John, Anthony should be interested in this for sure if You want to mention it to Him. Have many interested but, this is a project that will take time, money, sponsor's that are commited and I need partners in it for the long haul and can help in all the areas. Pick up sponsor's or help with cash as I will do also or just fund raising. I plan to by the rig We use myself. I'm not going with diesel but, twin turbo charged gas burner H2 stripped out by the rules etc. Lower it and run at salt flats, if they will agree to do it there. If not We will go with the salt flats and set new records in what ever class We can find to be in. If anyone wants in and has connections or abilities to help email Me at rltaz13@hotmail.com

I plan to drive it unless i feel someone can do better and that may not be hard. Please if serious email me and tell Me how You can help. We will most likely build it in My shop but, not out of reason to find a more central location where the team could meet once or twice a month to work on rig. If anyone has ideas on that let Me know also.
