Just an FYI-A lower ratio gear would be > 4.1 eg 4.3 not a lower number. Check Mazdatrix, Racing Beat. Lot's $$$$$, then it needs to be set up in diff.

3.909 is the lowest I have ever seen for a FC or FD.

If this is some alternative engine, then you may wish to post in other engine conversions or on some of the V8 RX-7 boards.
