I have the old school Accord drag car and I have a question about final drives.I do not have many choices in gear specs.I know that the taller gears are better for 1-4 but I have 3 choices for fd.The choices I have are 3.86,4.06,and a 4.20.I have the 3.86 in but which would be better for drag racing.Also I am running a 24.5 inch tire and would know how a taller and different fd would help.I would like to thank Charles Madrid for all the info he gave me this weeken,does anyone have his e-mail address or his shop #.Thank you.

 

good job this past weekend...you may want to hit up littlebluecrx (jason) or here2racenob.s. (charlie) they are very knowledgeable about gearing.

 

THe biggest thing you have to worry about is the drops in RPM in each gear. I would recommend to run the Accord Type-R tranny out of Europe. It has the best gear ratios (stock) that I can find.
