I've been wondering why SVT's gears go so high? It seems to me that being a 6-speed that we would have shorter ratio's instead most of my friends 5-speeds shift way earlier than my SVT. I beat them but still. . .
First gear is really the only "long" gear in the Getrag.
From there, they're dang close together.
In fact, 6th isn't even overdrive...it's 1.08:1.
The MTX-75 on the other hand has a 1.03 4th gear, and .77 5th.
