by upgrading my clutch bell to a 16T and keeping my spur gear at 52 will I be able to beat the Savage 4.6 in a drag race? Thanks for the help.
Im going to say no. The savage has either a 2 speed or a 3 speed tranny depending on the model. The hellfire might beat it off the line but once the savage gets moving and starts shifting it should pull away. There is really only one way to find out though

k20, if the front wheels are pulling more then the rear you need to change, or add, your diff fluid. 7/10/3 is a pretty good starting point, but you will have to make adjustments depending on how you drive and what you usually drive on. If the front wheels still pull too much with 10 then try 30 and so on till you find the right weight for your driving style.
