LOL ... I did th einstall ... to get the powertrain warranty you have to have it done by an ASE certified tech.

Man ... this is so damn frusterating. I JUST had this bitch rebuilt with good clutches and steels and ****. It doesn't even have a thousand miles on it.

I've got 3.42 right now .. I know that will be to high. I was thinking 4.10. I know whitt put in a 4.56 but I haven't heard anything from him in a while about it.

Code:

Transmission Ratios 1st Gear 2nd Gear 3rd Gear 4th Gear OD 
Turbo 350              2.52      1.52       1           N/A 
Turbo 400              2.48      1.48       1           N/A 
200- 4R                2.74      1.57       1           0.67 
4L60E                  3.06      1.63       1           0.7 
4L80E                  2.48      1.48       1           0.75

WIth the 60 my gears would give me a 6.48 final gear.
4.10's would give a 7.16 first gear

With the 80e and my 3.42's that would be 5.9 in 1st, with 4.10's that would be 6.58.

Me running up to 6500rpm, 1st is already long as hell. I'm really starting to lean on the 4.10's. That's going to give me a shitty OD though.
