RE: Gear ratio
The old versions had several different ratios on the Mach I,II,III, IV versions. My favorite was the Mach II.
What was amazing was these cars weighed around 2500 lbs, would generate 475 HP and many time much more at 5K RPM.
On one of the older version the ratios were:
TRANSMISSION
Type ZF 5 DS-25 Transaxle
Ratios Final Drive 4.22 : 1
(Optional) 3.33 : 1
Gearbox First 2.42 : 1
Second 1.47 : 1
Third 1.09 : 1
Fourth 0.96 : 1
Fifth 0.85 : 1
Reverse 3.75 : 1
On the Recent version it was:
Type 6-speed manual
Gear Ratios 1 - 2.61
2 - 1.71
3 - 1.23
4 - 0.94
5 - 0.77
6 - 0.63
Reverse - 3.135
