What tranny are you using? You need to know the tranny ratio too to complete the calculation.
If the GD600 has a common 3:1 ratio, and you pinion/spur ratio is as follows: 72/9=8, e.g. 8:1 ratio, then the final ratio would be spur ratio*GD600 ratio*tranny ratio*axle ratio
At the moment is 8*3*?*3.3= find the tranny and you have the answer
