So my mind has been at my overall goal of my car lately and for some reason the idea of putting a tko600 in chevelle is stuck in my mind guess it is cause I mind is going a 100mph and have multiple lists of parts figured for my combo to give me the car I want. OK this is a compromise car as is any car that is driven on the street set up to hit a track day here and there. My brain just went again need to measure for a surp belt that will delete the AC compressor out for track days keep in car. Plus will be good to have as a back up. But I do not want to give up overdrive and I want a manual trans as I want road race track days as part of this cars future. The TKO600 has two available ratio sets

I like this idea as a six speed is 600 more just for the trans I have my tire being 28" tall on an 18" that I plan to run in the rear
Information is taken from here very nice gear calc that graphs http://www.zealautowerks.com/transcalc.php
I only did the TKO600 comparison as the tq cap is better for my application
I am open to your guys opinions and experience here!!
That calculator is awesome put in any rpm as max it will give you your speed through the gears at that rpm
