BB, what sort of driving do you plan to do? Mainly city or mainly country miles? Are you after quick pickup or long highway legs?Are you after economy or is petrol consumption not a problem?

3.25 is probably a good ratio for middle of the range type driving I guess but will leave the opinions/answers to those that have the experience with Chev V8 in FB/EK conversions to elaborate on what they'd recommend.

Oh, and welcome to the forum 8)
