Re: 3:07 Rear End

If you put in a 200-4R I don't think you need anywhere near a 3.07 unless you plan to run at Bonneville! The overdrive is .67 or so, which would make that 2.04:1 rear end!

I'm running 4.10s and when the overdrive kicks in it's like a 2.75:1 on the highway and that's about perfect.

Am I missing something? I'd hate to see you wind up with an unusably tall gear.
