front sprocket

Mohave4,
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but most engine builders or mechanics do not reccomend using a countershaft sprocket smaller than a 12 tooth due to the severe angle it puts on the chain resulting in strain on the countershaft itself. If the chain should let go it would likely do so right at the countershaft, resulting in very expensive damage to your cases.
If you haven't installed it yet I would ask your dealer whether he would take it back & give you credit towards a larger rear sprocket to give you the low end you want.
Sorry,
