Tires are 325/65/18 nitto terra grapplers, load E 10ply tires. Wheels are 18x8.5 mb gunner 6.
If I had to do mine again I would go with a single 044 and upgraded wiring and not bother with the walbro, but my goals are a bit higher with a 408 and 6 lbs of boost.

Everyone always gets so worked up about the gear ratio. I am running a 32" tall tire and have a T-56 swap so 6th gear is a .50 ratio. So 5.13's work out to be about the same rpm in 6th as a F-body camaro running stock tire size and 4.10's. So using a simple rpm calculator you input
5.13 gear ratio 32" tall tire(305/50/20) 75mph w/.50 6th trans ratio = 2,020RPM
For comparison F-body with stock tire size and T-56
4.10 ratio 26" tall tire 75mph .50 trans ratio = 1,987rpm @75mph in 6th
5.13 gear ratio 32" tall tire(305/50/20) 75mph w/.50 6th trans ratio = 2,020RPM
For comparison F-body with stock tire size and T-56
4.10 ratio 26" tall tire 75mph .50 trans ratio = 1,987rpm @75mph in 6th
