4.30's aren't fun on the highway. That's what I have in my Dart (page 2). 3,200 rpm at 55mph.




Damn guys, sweet GTOs AMGs, Porches, classic mustangs and darts, race cars. Whata group.

Yeah...I'd say 4.10's would probably the steepest I'd go. Those should have 3.55's from the factory. I had 3.73's on a T-5 in my 5.0. The 3650 should have roughly the same gearing and with 3.73's would give you a good bit of punch.
With the cams I have the car lost some low end, my builder even suggested 4.56s, ha, but point is that since I'm staying N/A more gear is the way to go, now if it was blown, 3.73s or stock 3.55s would be fine.

This is UBI (pronounced oobee), my 2001 Miata. It's the third Miata I have owned, and I love him very much. I owned a 1990 and a 1997 also. Poor UBI doesn't get driven enough though, and I don't take as many pictures of him as I should. He only has 28,000 miles. This is taken on a trip to Yosemite National Park near where I live in San Francisco. The bikes traveled there on a special rack that attaches to the trunk.
