Re: 1941 Pickup transmission

For a 15 tooth input, the 29 tooth cluster teeth are 29-24-18-14. First gear is 29/15 x 29/18 = 3.11 while second is 29/15 x 22/24 = 1.77. Hence the 1st and 2nd ratios are about 10% wider for the 29 tooth trans compared to the 28 tooth. What does it mean? It means it acts as if the rear end were 10 % lower numerically while in first or second. Hence if you like your present response in first or second, you can switch to a 10 % higher rear end and get a 10% reduction in engine speed while in high gear while retaining your response in the lower gears. |
