A rough rule of thumb is that 4 teeth change on a spur is about the same as one tooth change on a pinion. Stock spur is 87 right?

You would need to go ~1.5 teeth lower then Johnny's recommendations to maintain the ratio.

I think I got that right.

puddle, What's up?

I run a 84T spur on my T4 quite a lot and when I do, I go 1 tooth down on the pinion. If you go to a 81T, try going down 2. I've never run a 81, let me know how it works.

I'm here Keith! Just a little lazy tonight ! Went

to Sizzler for supper, watched my Cavs lose, and

spent some time on Ebay!!

Mike Molina at the Reedy this week-end, Good luck Mike!!

Won't see Casper and Ryan, they're going to the wilderness

for some "frontier" living!

We'll be at Pegasus on Saturday, hope to see you all there!

Yeah like what ever that means. It sounds like they are going to co-locate and maybe share resources?
