dangreene Member 53 Member For: 17y 9m 6d Posted 30/05/11 03:24 AM Share Posted 30/05/11 03:24 AM Hey guys looking at doing a 2speed glide with 3000rpm stally in my ba series 1 xr6t.It has standard diff gears.I do basically no freeway driving so was just curious as to rpm - speed.Any rough idea on how many revs it would do at say 80kph?Its a weekend car basically built for strip and eating the occasional d*ckhead in a HSV on the weekend so drivability isnt essential haha.Any thoughts you guys have this setup would be awesome!Cheers Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/75095-2-speed-powerglide/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id go 3500 stally atleast if you want a street/strip car.

Its all good, I got the jist of it now. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/75095-2-speed-powerglide/#findComment-1110961 Share on other sites More sharing options...
