It was me that could not remember and had to make the thred Bob lol
I have no idea on the calculation, but l'll reply OUCH ! What was the car with 4.11's a 1/8th strip car ? Lol
If you had the 3.08 gear and wanted to go to a 3.23 or up you can run a spacer or "thick gears" to work with the 2 series carrier. just does not work the other way.
Your calculation sounds about right on the 3.23's at 65 mph. I ran 3.42's with a th350 and a 225 70r 14 and it put me at about 3200 at 65.

Lol no it's a long story tho. My brother had a 88 Monte SS 305 200r4 that rear was in it when he got it at the time I was a car dealer and I was fixing a wrecked 87 SS to sell with a 3.73 posi and a bent axel so I swapped them and gave him the good stuff for his driver and I put a 6 cylinder open 79 Cutlass unknown gear rear in the wrecked 87 because I wanted the Richmond 4.11s and summit carrier for my 83 Cutlass that I was street racing with a SBC at the time we'll somehow all these years later I still have that rear it's in my 87 Cutlass with a 455 olds and an M-21 but it's to week and has to much gear so I'm putting an 8.5 in it and I figured some of the parts would be good for my low buck 78 Cutlass W-31 build check out my other posts I have a wife and 2 daughter's the cars are what keeps me sane thanks for your help
Yes l read a post of yours , about your daughter loving that one car and wanting it , that's cool !! I hear ya about the only thing that keeps you sane !! I got 6 daughters and 2 ex's ! The Camaro in my Albums, my youngest helped build so it's her car when she turns 16. If it wasen't for the cars l'd be a drunk or worst ! Lol, 7 day drunk that one time of the month !
I thought Richmond made a 3.08 gear set with a thicker ring gear that will fit the 3 series carrier?
Not for the 7.5 3 series carrier but they do make them for the 8.2 3 series. You may be thinking of the 2 series carriers that you can put thick 3.23 ring gear and larger # in.
