    Hey Guys and Gals, I have a set of formulas that help determine axle ratio, RPM, MPH and Overall tire diameter. They helped me as I built my Dodge A-100 pro-street pick-up. Try-em out! Thanks Larry Gill in East China Mi.

    i have a spreadsheet i made years ago called geardaddy. it shows you differences in rpm at whatever speeds from diff tire/wheel sizes or different rearend ratios.
    also has some hydraulic calcs for use with tractors standard and metric.
    lift comparos for different rocker arms.
    you can even compare rpms in different transmission gears.

    email me at buickragtop74@yahoo.com and make the heading say geardaddy and i will send it to anyone.

    i used it to figure concrete (it does that too) for my 30x60 garage and only had enough left over to pour a 3x4 foot step 5 inches thick.

    it also has some basic volume and area calcs.

    thanks, i hope you enjoy it.

    there is a good book called "Automath" and in my earlier days of computing, i did an excel spreadsheet for every page of the book.it took me about 10+ months..... then my hard drive crashed. thats how i learned the hard way to back things up.
    boy did that suck ..... but only to excess.
