Probably the easiest way to find out what you gear ratio is.....is to pull #3 and #7 spark pull. Take the divided gap of both and times it by your carb CFM. Then you take (in inches) the distance from the front of the INSIDE of your bed and measure back to the full cooler of beer. Now....add up the EMPTY beer cans that are still cold. Take Pie R Squared and times that by the model number on your left front head light. That will usually give you the gear ratio of your rear end down to about +/- .00000000021
