Paul,
M23Z gear ratios are... 2.99:1 – 2.04:1 – 1.47:1 – 1.00.
M20 gear ratios are...2.52, 1.88, 1.46, 1.00
Take off feel will be like 5:09 first gear with the 302...3:73 and my G70 X 14 GoodYears.
Not a race car...street car and much safer, so yes...it may not be up to race car standards
but is a safe car now. Tough to have all the right combinations...don't want to drive around
with 4:88's in the rear. Good for racing but not for a street car. The 302 will do fine with the
M23Z Much stronger/better trans then I had. The 302 never liked the 3:73 with the M20
trans when I took the 4:11's out, but I hope that the M23Z & cross ram will be a better
combo.What I did was best I could with the combination I wanted. It will work just fine
Paul. I did not want the best or the fastest car on the street anymore. Driving to the Grove
is feasible now with the 3:73. One tank of racing gas gets me there and back.
Dave
