I run a CHB 020 box with 4K internals and a 3.94 R&P over a WaveTrac diff.

Ratios are

3.45, 2.12, 1.44, 1.13, 0.89 with a FDR of 3.94

In other words a close ratio stack in a late model box with an LSD.

Good combo on the track, nice and punchy out of the corners and just the right FDR to be hitting red line at the end of the straight in 5th.

I change at 6500 rpm (or above) to keep the revs above 5000.

Tyres are 185/60/14 so a circumference of about 1814mm
