banshee4201 Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 I was just wondering about some pros and cons of straight cut gears. I know they are supposed to take strain off of the crank and i also know that they come in different ratios. I run a 485 4mil cheetah and i drag 600ft. on dirt. I run 17/38 to 19/36 gearing. I was just wondering which ratio to run and why i should and why not? 2.86 or 2.68 Thanks for any input in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 i hear different people say different things. i run them in my 10mm motor. could i have gotten by without them? probably. but i had already spent an ass load anyway, so i said fuck it and bought them too.. i think guys on the asphalt run them in different sizes so they can have a taller gearing setup.
