Early 90's Gearbox ratios?

[slowride81]

Hello!

I'm trying to locate some information on the early-mid 90's AJP 450bhp V8 Tuscan Challenge Series cars.

From what I understand the Gearboxes were Borg Warner T-5 5 speeds.

Would anyone have some information on the gear ratios and final drive/rear-end ratios used in the series?


Thanks for any help you can provide.

How long is a piece of string.

all manner of different gearbox and final drive ratios will have been used during the top flight days of the tuscan challenge. Your best bet would be to contact quaiff and ask what gear cluster ratios are available for the T5 and you will have your answer.

I thought the Challenge ratios were fairly well screwed down 2-3 diff ratios and 2 gearbox setups?
im sure thats all in the regs i've got somewhere..

JR will be the best place to start though

Wheel/Tyre dimensions were also control:

Dunlop Slicks : 250/640/18 ---------------
Dunlop Wets : 235/640/R18 B44W404/SP9000

As Andy states you could only play with the Diff ratios.

Cheers
