As near as I can calculate (I switched to 26" from 28"), your effective gear
ratio will be between 4.15 to 4.20. With my auto. and 3.55 (then), I was
going through the line at 4000 rpm with the 28" ... with the 26", I was
going through near 4500 rpm. 26"ers 'may' drop your trap speed a bit but
will probably drop your ETs as well ... about 2/10's for me.
