It's an excellent combination to start with. You should have it all, brutal acceleration, overdrive, less engine wear and excellent gas mileage.Thanks 5-7HEAVEN, Your math seems excellent. I have a 10-40 tooth chainring from jackshaft and a 36? (will count it) front chainring on bike. I think the front de railer would keep the chain in place. I'll try to find one today.
Have a 33 tooth sprocket coming for the jack shaft to replace the 43. My splines I cut aren't the straightest so the 33 will mount to a smaller gear right to the 5/8" keyed shaft and bring the ratio perfect. Should get that Wed or Thurs.
If you have a powerful engine, it will scream.
If you have a low-to-medium hp engine, it will sing like a sewing machine.
