having this discussion on another forum..
about 3:73 vs. 4:30 rear gears for the Modern Super Duty Gas engines...this is a 6 speed tranny with 5 and 6 being over-drive gears.
"But... once operating in a transmission over-drive gear,either 5 or 6, the torque is not magically produce by the 4:30 rear gears...right?
example:
3:73 gears, 5th (1st over drive from transmission) engine operating at 2200 rpm = X torque at wheels
4:30 gears, 6th (2nd over drive from transmission) engine operating at 2200 rpm = X torque at wheels.
in this case X should be equal? "
What say you?
