This subject has bounced around for years without a solution to my knowledge.Can you change out the fifth gear (over drive) on an 1800,so that at 70 mph,your RPMs reading is at 2500 instead of 3300 we have now, too get an extra 5 to 10 mpg and some less wear and tear on the engine??
u really think u could gain 5-10 MPG by changing the gear ratio ?Can you change out the fifth gear (over drive) on an 1800,so that at 70 mph,your RPMs reading is at 2500 instead of 3300 we have now, too get an extra 5 to 10 mpg and some less wear and tear on the engine??
That is really old school...Why not just change the counter-shaft sprocket? Tee Hee
