alright, i have done some research in my decision of which ratio to go. here is the data ive put together. all of this data is with the manual transmission with sport package tires. hopefully this helps someone else out in the future as well
Stock redlines.
1st- 42mph
2nd-69
3rd-99
4th-126
5th-160
6th-202
3.9 final drive
1st-40
2nd-65
3rd-93
4th-119
5th-152
6th-191
4.08 final drive
1st-38
2nd-62
3rd-89
4th-114
5th-145
6th-183
4.36 final drive
1st-36
2nd-58
3rd-84
4th-107
5th-136
6th-171
if you want to know what rpm you would be at in any gear at any mph with any final drive just let me know and i can figure that out too.
here is the rpm at 70mph which i figure is highway cruising speed for most people
Stock FD- 2591rpm
3.9 FD- 2738 rpm
4.08 FD- 2864 rpm
4.36 FD- 3061 rpm
