I bought my 2nd GTX last year. To replace a loss from years ago. Although the cars are simular in appearance. With simular 440s. And same drive train. (4 speed with Dana rear 3.54:1) They perform very differently. My first was quicker thru the gears. This one is definitely faster on top end. My first started the speed vibration and was done at about 140. This one? Pegged speedo of 150 and that 440 was still pulling. Tach was saying 6k. (But that too is stock. And who knows its accuracy?) Confirmed by a Nissan GTR that I thought was supposed to be near 200 MPH car? (Although this one wasn't newest of models. And he may have lifted.) But be that as it may. The question: Are there higher gear sets for the Dana than 3.54:1? I never have heard of any like 3.23? Because something is different. I'm sure if I did the count drive shaft revs? It would be 3 1/2. Suggesting a 3.54:1. The rear tire is a little taller than front. But not that much to make this big of difference? But maybe? What does one inch tire height mean in MPH? (I'm sure there is a calculator out there.)
