If your asking how to calculate a gear ratio its done as follows:


spur (divided by) pinion (times) transmission ratio = final drive

the lower the final drive is (7.5, 6.5, 5.5 and so on) the top end.

the higher the final drive is (9.5, 10.5, 11.5 and so on) the toruqe or take off.

If want to know where you can make a gear chart, check out www.gearchart.com (http://www.gearchart.com) you can make a gear chart and print it and keep it in your tool box.
