Hello men. I am building a tremendously spunkey 302 to be mated with a ford racing T-5. I have a nice rear-end but don't trust the gears. I'd like to put a traction-lock third member and am struggling with the gear choice. Their T-5 gears range from a 2.95 1st to a .63 5th gear. I was thinking 4.10's. This is the 1st ford we've dealt with. Everyone I know is leaning toward 3.55's. They keep asking me if I'm racing it. I have a heavy foot around town, but am a responsible guy. I sure don't need to go 150 mph or anything, but a very comfortable 80 mph would be good. I just enjoy feeling a healthy push from stoplights and such. Chances are, I'll never get it to hook up with street tires anyhow. What do all of you think? Thanks for the opinions...
