Im almost considering just running a stock gear lol Why won't you answer if the motor has been on a Dino? I honestly doubt you have anywhere near 500hp. If so lets have the specs of this beast. 500 hp is a stupid amount of power to have in anything yet alone a derby car. |

I'm not going to argue 500 hp for a derby car, I've done mid 400's , but the problems then becomes heat ..... which you can deal with to some extent, but low end torque ..... which will be a problem with stock 2.73 gears ..... without low end torque, you will want lower gears .... how low,  ?? |

Yes I know 500 horse isn't to hard to make but I hear of so many people who claim it that it makes me laugh.
Care to share any details on the engine build?
