Glide on the highway??

[91lxnos]

How is driving a glide on the street? What kind oh rpm is it holding at say 65mph on the highway? My c4 is at 3500rpm screaming for another gear on the highway. Just wondering what a glide would be like??

its 1.0 high gear...C4 is the same?.....

[Timido]

high gear is the same with both. My opinion is the Glide is Borring on the street.

I'm changing to a glide from a 5 speed now. What gear do you have in the rear end now?

I have a 3.55 and I'm leaving it for now..... I will probably step it up to a 4.30 or so when the car gets sorted out.

i ran a powerglide in my chevelle on the street for 2 years.but putting a turbo400 in was my best move as far as the street goes.my et didn't change much after the swap neither

Go to a 28" tall tire for the street...it will help bring down the overall gear ratio.

That is what I went with, 28" Drag Radial.
