Macktech689 Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 Changing the transmission wont help, you will need to change the rear gears to get more roadspeed.

alex g Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 I'm not sure if I'd rather change a trans or a set of rear ends just the thought of it makes me tired Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/39961-transmission-swap/#findComment-289373 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdog Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 you can turn 4th and 5th around in the transmission and make it a double over Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/39961-transmission-swap/#findComment-289380 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walt1967 Posted May 10, 2015 Author Share Posted May 10, 2015 If 4th and 5th are turned around how much faster will it go? Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/39961-transmission-swap/#findComment-289383 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superdog Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 my '86 with 3:55's and LP24.5 rubber will top out over 100 mph with a 14613 that's been turned around.I don't what the final OD ratio is in one of these conversions,but it's pretty tall.

Timmyb Posted May 10, 2015 Share Posted May 10, 2015 I'm pretty sure rto eaton are single overdrive. Where the rtlo are double. I can't talk for every eaton, but I looked at a single overdrive rto 13 and the overdrive was .86 and the rtlo is .87 in 13/17th and .73 in top. With .73 od and 4.42 you should have 1700rpm at 100km/60m.
