What is a common gear ratio for a 19ft deep v with a 260hp 350? I have an 86 Cobra with high altitude gears, 1.49:1 I think. What would be the effect of running that low of a ratio compared to a higher one? Can the ratio be easily changed? Or should I just bite the bullet and get the SEI conversion? But then that brings me back to what gear ratio should I look at?
