Where is everyone #5

Sometimes it seems that no matter how hard you plan something, circumstances change and throw a wrench in the gears...

 

Got one load of rice off in houston. Off to branch Louisiana to pick up another.

Spotted this ole gal yesterday afternoon.

 

They're back.....about the size of a quarter....vicious little things, but friendly to us two legged folk. Watched one catch a mud wasp, first the wings, then the head and on down everything except legs....

 

Run whichever transmission makes you happy. That being said, the situation you are describing, a 18 will offer a benefit over the 13.

These would be for rtlo 16913a & rtlo 16918b
The 13 you shift 4th low range 3.23 to 5 low, high range 2.29.
The 18 you shift 4hi low range 2.73 to 5 low, high range 2.29.

I see it as smaller gap, 2.73-2.29 will provide less rpm drop. What exactly are we arguing about here..?

 

The tread depth of a Model A Ford?

 

I swear people don't realuze how much our concrete jungles impact how hot it gets. Left the camp this morning and car registered 80. Drove 15-20 min into town and it jumped to 89. The radiant heat from asphault/concrete accts for an almost 10 degree difference.

 

I ran a 13spd with 2.70 rears, iirc. That made for some long gears, lol. Of course it had a 550hp (dyno verified, not made #) that moved it along. But I was able to run a whole trans gear lower. So 8th direct was like 1400rpm at 64mph.

 

A guy I know who has a little used car lot just picked up a '99 9200 with a flat top and N14. It looked like he pulled it out of a field before it was washed up and he stuck a $13,500 price on it, lol.

 

Oh that's easy.! It's 47/32nds. I thought everyone knew that?

Now that that's settled,
What would chairs look like if our knees bent the other way..?

 

Why did we drive in a parkway, and park in a driveway?
