just playin around with this and got a couple questions


What do you think the rev limiter is set at on a 3.8 V6 from a ford taurus?  5500?


What would you guess the diff gears are in a ford taurus?  I'm guessing around 3:1



I'm just trying to figure out the Max MPH my buggy should hit and then I'll go out and pace it.  Last time I hit the rev limiter it didn't seem like I was going fast enough.


here's the rest of the info needed:

tire - 40"

diff gearing - 4.10

it's an OD trans but I'm just assuming 1:1 for the trans gear - not sure it's going to OD?

the taurus diff gearing will be the transfer case gearing

and the rev limiter will be the RPM's


putting in 5500rpm and 3:1 tcase I get 53mph and i really don't think it's going that fast but who knows

I'll pace it sometime this week and find out but it'd be good to know what it "should" do
