    In response to soaringeagle

Old racer's rule of thum on gear ratios -

For every tenth of a point you change in FINAL RATIO (.10) will change engine sped by 100 RPM.

At the same road speed, the 3.55 gear will slow down the engine by 400 RPM vs. the 4.11.

Thanks so much for your service!!! Get home safely and GET TO WORK on her!

Take Care, Tim
