No i dropped teeth on the pinion to maintain the same fdr.
I know a lot of people have argued about internal ratios in the past. Engineers always say it makes no difference, and that you are stupid if you think it does.
I don't know, but it didn't seem so peak-y. Before, going one way or the other seemed like it either was rev'd out or not getting up to speed until too late on the straight.
Anyway, I like it. so I will continue to delude myself.
