Well... using this formula

Overall Drive Train Ratio = (# teeth on spur gear / # teeth on pinion gear) x Tranny Gear Ratio

and using a 78 spur and a 26 pinion the manual says it gives a overall gear ration of 9.17:1

So Ive worked it out that the internal gear box ration is 3.05:1.

Plugging this back into the formula gives a Overall ration of 9.15:1 so I think its right.

and who says you'll never use A-Level maths again (actually I think that was more GCSE level )
