My rpms at 65mph are right at 2000 with the 35's. This sounds like the 3.73 or whatever the lower gear is, right?
QUOTE]
Sounds more like 4.10's. My 3.73 with stock tires cruises at 2000RPM @70
mine with 3.73 is 1800rpms at 65 and 2000 rpms at 70

I just got home from a 232-mile goose hunting trip...Yes I drove 116 miles one way to hunt geese this morning It was worth it
Anyway, the trip up was all 2-lane state highways and county roads, the trip home was mostly the same, except for 60 miles of interstate and 70mph....
Roughly 20mpg round trip...Needle is between 5/8 and 3/4...I'm figuring around 11-12 gallons used.....Havent filled up so I dunno what it is exactly
I am running 16oz of PS/MMO mixed 50/50
I'll take 20mpg

The 4.10's are a $50 option. The G56's 6th gear is lower than the NV, also.
NV G56
1st - 5.63 - 6.29
2nd - 3.38 - 3.48
3rd - 2.04 - 2.10
4th - 1.39 - 1.38
5th - 1.00 - 1.00
6th - 0.73 - 0.79
Rev - 5.63 - 5.74
(Boy, not only was this thread hijacked....it's being help for ransom. )
