Just pulled the trigger on a 6060!

[Greg Hazlett]

We pruned that bitch last night!! It's fucking bare brother!!!

Did you at least leave me a twig or a leaf?

LaPoint Discount Auto Parts is on ebay.

I have a one piece shaft, crossmember and a stock shifter. I need a 26 spline disc for my Exedy and will be getting the MGW unit.

Anybody in the market for a Roush billet shifter?

I did the speed calcs per gear, based on a 6100 redline with the .74 / .5 gears and a 28.7" tire. The first column is with 3.55, the second with 3.73, the third with 4.10. Fourth column is the 3650, 3.55 and 28.7 tire.
1st - 50 48 45 43
2nd - 82 78 71 73
3rd - 113 107 98 111
4th - 147 139 127 146
5th - 240 229 208 215
6th - 293 279 254

Damn to the first column! lol I shift at 6900 rpms !
Can u calculate, 6060, 3.55 gears, 6900 shift and 27.5" tire thats how my car will be sitting after the swap.

 

[Dread53]

I'll redo the calc if you can tell me where to get the 2 pins!!

I already had the spreadsheet set up for 6800, so this should get you pretty close. While I was there I did 3.73 and 4.10. Last column is 3650 with same tire and 6800

1st - 53 50 46 46
2nd - 89 84 77 78
3rd - 121 115 105 119
4th - 158 150 136 157
5th - 197 187 170 231
6th - 315!! 300 273

 

[JeremyH]

[Greg Hazlett]

I havent a clue Jeremy for the 6060 but that shouldnt be to hard to find. Our autos take 11 and some change and add another 4 qts for the deep pan.

Thanks Mike thats what I planned on using. Damn amsoil is $11.50 a quart- RP- $8 etc... Kimnach Ford has the best pricing on the MotorCraft like $5.20 if I remember correctly.
