One thing I will mention that Has been nagging at me more and more recently is first gear.

With these numerically higher gears first gear just seems useless. When easing into the throttle it seems to not really accelerate "good" until I shift into 2nd because of how short 1st is.

However, on the plus side I think first gear on a 4l80 will feel damn near perfect with these gears.

It will help some. Mine are 29.74" so 31" will help. Just thought I'd throw that up for anyone else that comes across this thread.
