How many of you guys are racing with a C6 and what are you running for a rear gear and what tire size?


Thanks Tore

When I had my C-6, I was running a 4.56 cog with a 14.5X32W tire. This was with the 514 (4.150 stroke).....and as I recall, it would run 9.90 at about 137 and cross at around 7 grand. I had a "low gear" set in the C-6 and it would leave rather violently. This was at 3650#...or so....
Looking back....a 4.10 or 4.29 gear would have been better, but a lot of that will depend on the cam/head/stroke combo of the particular engine.
