mhoward1 Posted February 1, 2013 Share Posted February 1, 2013 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UBR Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Just curious, but what rule change has you going in that direction? j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhoward1 Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UBR Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 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. j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhoward1 Posted February 2, 2013 Author Share Posted February 2, 2013 Yeah, we have to use OEM T5 WC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UBR Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 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. j Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
