FYI -- [Chrysler300] 300 F axle ratios

FYI --

The "F" would have run C/SA in 1967. It generally took mid-12-second ETs to win that class in 1967.

In 1960, the "F" would have run S/SA. Ramchargers S/SA ran 14.51 at 98 mph at Detroit Dragway that year (330 HP Sonoramic Plymouth).

No kidding times have changed, Alan ... the COPO Camaro set an NHRA S/SA record at Englishtown, NJ with an 8.4 and 161.8.

Hey Guys, Back in '67 I drove my 'F' once at Fremont Drags. Using 2.93 gears, turned a16.38, slow, but not bad I thought. Hot Rod Magazine had a road test showing 16 flat, 7 years earlier. I don't remember their axle ratio maybe someone out there has the issue. I'm sure all of you remember 6 seconds to 60 mph was considered a pretty good acceleration time, and about 7 sec. for our Brutes, but a Cobra 5.5 seconds, WOW!

Times have changed...now in 2015 my Wife's car.... 2.9 to 60. We are having the time of our lives! Alan
