A bit out of context...gotta know the ICE's torque/HP/RPM curve...where you wish to be towing/cruising/etc in RPMs...the tranny gears you wish to likewise tow/cruise/etc at
Then the tire's rev's per mile factor all this
Take my 7.4L big block gasser.
Red line is solid at around 4,800 RPMs with a dash red line starting around 4,300 RPMs
A small block can rev a couple thousand RPMs higher all day where mine would blow up
Gotta know where you wish your RPMs to be at while towing/cruising/etc...
Or you could just say get 4.10s for towing cause they're better when you don't have unlimited power under the hood....
