And in some cases, you may need to modify the right rear chassis brace. Check the pictures, they're worth a thousand word explanation. With all these mods combined, I can get a 62 tooth pinion in with an 84 tooth spur (64 pitch) for a final drive ratio of 3.39. That gear ratio isn't of much use though on anything but an oval layout, so you probably don't have to go as far as I did. It was a trial and error learning process for me.
Hey "beemerfan" what ball caps are those your using?
