How do you know with out knowing his internal ratio? Or is d2 a car? Maybe he wants to know if that is a good FDR for that turn motor. If so, you are in the ball park.

if your running a 74 spu / 34 pinion . your FDR is 4.53 ,,

if you can check here www.gearchart.com . remember FDR will change depending on track ( asphalt / carpet ) layout ..

also running a 10.5 about 5.0 final should do just fine ..

Your both wrong 74/34 in a TC5 is 4.35...

I ran my 10.5's at around 5.2-5.3, but it really depends on the size of the track.

Ditto, it also depends on your speedo/profile. Most people I know run shorter gearing with higher profiles - I run profiles 7-8 on my SPX stocks spec. 4.3 is super tall, I would expect your motor to smoke up at that kind of gearing

what if i run that gearing with a 13.5? 34/74 i guess that what i am trying to get at is is this too much for a 13.5? i see that it will be for a 10.5 so that is out
