Question Gear Recomendation

Lq4 + tr224 112lsa + Pace Setter LT's + Nelson Tune + Fuddle 3000 + FLT4l65e + Eaton LSD + LS1 e fans + 20's with 275/45 rubber = which gear ratio?

Note: at the track i will throw on the stock 16's with some MT ET streets


I moved this, I posted in Whoops lol.

If your not worried about gas then throw some 4.56's in there with the 26" et stree and get-it!! I would do the 4.10's around town and throw the et's on @ the track. With a 4L60E, 32" tall tire and a 4.56 gear @ 70-75mph, I will be turning 2800rpm.

4.56's! Nah, I'd say 4.10's would be your best bet like they said.

Go with the 4.10. Anything below that would be worth all that work. Just my .02

with stock height tires (around 30") you should be turning around 2350 to 2450.
