Ok...another question: My 86 Tri Z came stock with 21 inch tires...I am switching to 20 inch tires...how much will this reduce my top speed.

Any Experts??? Math wizzards?

Not enough to notice... Something that minute you will never notice.

Just go up a tooth on the Counter-shaft sprocket - use a Banshee aftermarket one. Personally, I put 22" D Devels on mine and I was really happy with the results. I don't think you will notice much of a difference anyway.

On my 85 Z I went with 22 inch turf tamers so I didn't lose any top speed or ground clearance.
