I used to run a malibu with 4:56's and 26 inch tires. It worked out even with the spray. It will depend on your combo, but it should work.

It all depends on what RPM you want to run you engine at.

I have 26'' tires with 4:30 gears. I usally run about 7200 to 7400 in the quarter with a 383 on the bottle. Depending on the combo it it really just a guess.

how high do you rev your motor?!?

there are calculators all over the internet that will help give you an idea on what you need... just type in your tire height and gears.. just depends on how high you wrap that engine!
