Re: Another 489bbc question

Nice thing about a big block is torque, so stick with the suggestion of 3.73 for gears, won't need to spin it up but will need more stall, at least around 2,500 to 2,700 and may even have to go up to 3,000 with a tunnel ram just to make it streetable, remember the stall actually moves the truck before it's listed stall speed. Tunnel ram will make it look cool but less streetable.
