Default Re: Funny question BUT........Shifting RPM Range
Well with the 420 tranny, I guess we should determine what we are calling 1st, granny or 2nd? Since I start out in the gear up from granny I will say that is 1st. What I have noticed is that I can shift from 1st to 2nd at a lower RPM and not have it lug than I can from 2nd to 3rd. Seems to like the shift to high gear when I am going around 35 MPH. I have a 3;54 rear end and the tires are about 29".
