Having some fun. I swear, this new pump made a large difference in the high end. I was leaning out badly before. Its about 3.5 seconds from 40-60 and about 5-6 seconds to hit 70mph. Not too shabby.
Here was the previous pull from 3rd gear I mention in the beginning of vid 1
Lissen, Zippy....these cars have a 6800 RPM redline for a damn good reason....it`s purpose *is to USE IT*....now, go burn your Man Card, and buy yourself a Camry....
Yup. The 3.46 swap is fun. The first mod I made to my 330. However, I find that first gear is way, way too short. I also just moved and have double the commute... a nice 25 mile freeway jaunt. Contemplating going back to the stock 3.07 or even taller in search of higher fuel economy. Buzzing at over 3000R when doing 80mph...
The roads need to dry out so I can blast some twisties and forget this nonsense...
Very interesting. Today I let loose and rev'ed up to 6000 rpm's . It was interesting; the motor did not sound as sketchy as I said before. But I still have to say that I will stay shifting at or before 4000. And how would I find my gear ratio?
That area of the tach is red to draw your attention to it... like the blinking message light on your smart phone it means "show me some love!" GO GET IT!
