Hey all, So got my Torana going now and been out on a road trip, and the Rpm is a little high for what I would like cruising at 100kph being 3500rpm
Now this car is going to be more of a cruiser not a drag car so would like to reduce it a little.
So I punched my info into this gear ratio calc http://www.apexgarag...ar_ratios.shtml
Holden 355 - TH350 - 9" 3.7:1 - 645mm/25.4" OD wheels and it says I should be doing 100kph @ 3000-3100rpm
It was a long long time ago when I got the Torque converter so not sure what rpm it was supposed to be but would this mean I have a 3500 hi-stall? And its constantly slipping while im cruising, creating alot of heat and hurting fuel consumption?
Should I be reducing stall to 2500-3000?
