I have a 305 w/TH350 trans. I'm not sure but I've been told I most likely have 3.07 rear end gears.Getting ready to do a swap for a 700R4 to improve highway driving and mpgs.With my 29.1" tires, the info I got from the RPM calculator is below.The guy doing the swap for me says I want to be around 2000rpm at 70mph.With 3.55's, 70mph puts me at 2946rpm / 2008rpm w/OD.With 3.73's 70mph puts me at 3096rpm / 2110rpm w/OD. (1960rpm at 65mph w/OD)Based on what my mechanic said, it looks like 3.73's would work well...right?If not, opinions please.Thanks
Thanks. Did your MPGs improve? I currently average around 11-12mpg hwy. I rarely drive with a heavy foot. So 3.55 or 3.73 better?
With the 3.42s and my tires:1935rpm @ 70mph / 1797rpm @ 65mphIs that not high enough?
