insight

This is a photo of the ID plate on my ZF transaxle. The gear ratios seem low to me given the output horsepower of the 289 circa 1967, but I'm hoping someone might have some insight as to why the ratios are as they are and perhaps what the ID numbers mean. Thanks, John

A friend of mine saw this at an auction and very kindly thought of me. I think it gives a remarkable insight into the lengths that JWE went to to prepare to win. I thought you chaps might like to see them too.
