Does this sound right whats my gear ratio in this car?
I have a bad 0-60 time in my 1995 bonneville SLE L36 it seems to have a consistant mid to high 8'* in that car sometimes even low 9'* I think there may be something wrong with it but I dont know what could be wrong seems like I have some high gear ratios it shifts out at about 45 in 1st and about 90 in 2nd I dont know whats wrong is this normal don't seem like 205 hp like I should have.... sucker shifts like around 5900-6000 rpm It seems to be pretty slow up intill about 20 mph
