Sorry, but I'm not sure I'm doing this right.
I have a Worksman Adaptable trike, an extra 5hp Briggs, and a Comet Torq-a-Verter with a 10 tooth cog.
Top speed would be 40 mph @ 3600 rpm on a 26" wheel - I figure 517 rpm at the wheel - 3600 divided by 517 = 6.96
Is 7:1 ratio reasonable using a torque converter? Do I need a jackshaft for this? Is there something I'm missing?
Thanks in advance
