Anyone have a 3.08 gear set for a Ford 8.8 laying around. The 2013 rule changes have me looking for one. I will order new if needed, but I thought I would ask here first.

Just curious, but what rule change has you going in that direction?

It's the 2013 Factory Five Challenge rules. We can now run 2.73, 3.08, or 3.27. Tried the 3.27 and ran out of RPM on long straights. The 2.73 is really tall so I think the 3.08 will be a nice compromise.

Ok. Makes sense now. I saw this in the AI section and thought I missed something in the new rules.

 

We're allowed to run a usable 5th gear, so my 3.73 gears are perfect. With 3.08s, I'd being doing rolling starts in 1st.

Yeah, we have to use OEM T5 WC

Those don't last too long in our cars. Shoot, we broke 3rd gear in both of our TKO 600s.
