Original drive sprocket 30", 1:8 scale is 3.75"
550rpm at the shaft should give you about 6mph.
Check out the Sherman Builder's Home Page
(http://www.geocities.com/Pentagon/Barracks/3826/ShermanTank.html), he's
building a 1:8 Sherman.
Sprockets are detailed at http://www.geocities.com/elf1564/spr12c.html
