Could use suggestions trying to decide if a lsxrt is worth my time and money or not.

Event the lsxrt looses low end? Must be due to such large runners or doesn't anyone really know.

I thought gears is the way to go. And maybe a higher stall. I have a i6 tb stall but I think i need around 3000 rpm stall. I have a 212 218 lsx low lift cam i installed with the rebuild and love it. But i dont feel like im getting everything i can out of the truck right now. I just dont want to go to low with gears because i still drive it on the highway alot. Anyone notice much loss on top end speed with low gears. Im thinking 4.11's

Go 4.56's. You won't regret it.

Based on their track record, fitment issues, I would say nope.

There are plenty of fitment and tuning issues floating around with the 102, and I'm talking about some of the biggest and best name tuners in the industry. For a DD I would skip it every time. If you can afford to have the truck down for the count while you mess with it that would be another story. Then again, if it werent a DD you wouldnt be looking for so much low end.

SKIP IT! For the price you could get your hands on a 6.0... Hows that for a boost across the entire RPM band.

I would try out the fast 92mm. It should be easier to tune for.

I went with the gears. Got 4.56's and love them. I know i will have to convert it from a three bolt to a four bolt with a plate but What years are considered a nnbs. And will any of them match my stock heads on the truck in my sig. Im thinking about looking for one on ebay or trying to find someone selling one
