I had a conversation with wes today at length. A 5th gear dyno run would bring the truck to like 150 mph. Its out of the question.Originally Posted by UselessPickles
Ok, here it is. Jessee's torque curve in both 3rd (blue) and 4th (red) gear:
If the pattern continues, I bet a 5th gear pull (which due to 4.88 gears, would be similar to a 4th gear pull on stock gears/tires) would result in an even earlier and higher torque peak that has a shape more like Prodigy's results.
4th gear is the closest to 1 to 1 and the axle gear ratio is a non factor.
Its not going to make 40 more hp if you run it in 5th.
