I cant figure out this combination for the life of me.....just seems odd for a 250 I6 engine.
Obviously with a 7:01 first gear ratio the sm420 will push those gears just fine but does this make sense to anyone else?
I hate to just dump the transmission or the rear end but both seem odd choices. Any thoughts. | | |
