Title: What rear end gear to run in a hobby stock
Post by chevy68pickup on 01/08/13 at 6:45pm

I'm trying to find out what rear end gear to run with a powerglide and a th350 at Antioch speedway? If anyone can help me with this It would really help me out.  Running a 10 bolt by the way.

Ventura Final gear ratio should be a 7.50 or 7.33. Depends on motor size and how well its built.

3.08 with a t350 in low is a 7.88 final.
ran that same gear at bako, sms, victorville, porterville, pearsonville, pahrump, and a few others.
no reason a well taken care of small block chevy shouldnt handle 7200 rpm many nights.
