Greg,

I do not have a rev counter since the pertronix will not work with 
two that I have , do you know of a brand/type of counter that will 
work with my setup ?

I beleive that my final gear ratio is around 3.65:1 . 
My setup is the stock !600 , balanced crank, MOFOCO
heads with almost stock size valves, total seal rings,Thunderbird exhaust 
from the junkyard, hydraulic tappets (lifters), Swivel valve
adjusters, filter with 150 plate mesa cooler, automatic tranny and 
stock EFI with untampered pressure sensor. 

I have nothing out of this world in it except the extra cooling of the oil 
and careful tin sealing. But the autotranny final drive gear is alot taller
than the stickshift's but it is also stock. Balancing and 
cooling is what makes the biggest difference but I still see the left
bank head hotter than the right with my temp gauge , physical 
evidence is also present . 25 to 100 degress difference though , not
roasting yet 
anyhow.
