could i run a 12/42 gearing?

or just a qustion..can i run a 13/50????

saw it online and im jus wundering bacause i want more accelartion..
 
you could do that! but damn thats a bigass rear sprocket,you would gain ridiculos bottom end power... but your top speed would prolly be about 30 to 40 if that! lol
 
haha i dont wanna lose power on top end.i mean im willing to lose a few mph but not alot..so a 42 would be better you think?
 
is your blaster really slow or something? With those mods you should have a decent amount of accell. With that gearing youd be switching gears too fast i think. We have similar mods and Im running 14-37 and mine still shifts too fast, but i probably got a better port job B-)
 
ya my accelartion is decent but it could be better ya no..cuz wen i race alot of my friends im just barly wining because they all have faster accel..but once mine hits bout 5th gear im just killin then.so i figure that if i could gain that little bit of accel.that i would kill'em
 
i would say about 65-70 BUT i think my clutch starts to slip at high rpms for some reason. I dont know if its the whole "powerband" thing kicking in, but all of a sudden my motor jumps from like 7k-9k rpms and gets really loud, only does it in 6th gear too.
 
The power band isn't a "thing" it's the rpm range where your engine makes it's most power.
