So, the question is, what is a good compromise ratio for my needs? I need to have the ability to do some freeway cruising as well as have some fun on the street.

Since I could concievably drive 100 miles or more on the freeway, I want to keep things civil. I also want to be able to have a little fun with some of the newer cars on the street.

I know a low gear and an OD trans would be the hot ticket, but that's just not in the cards today. Perhaps an OD unit later, but that'll be a while.

I am thinking between a 3.08 and 3.23 gear. Posi of course. I was thinking a 3.55 gear would be a touch too low.

And suggestions?
