I just ordered cal-speeds 1 7/8" LT's and I'll get some 4.10's from Ron's Monday.
I asked an owner of a local shop who has a few clients pushing big power through a stock 14b g80, so I'm not worrying about a trutrac right now.

Agreed. I had those damn things out before I even hit 500 miles on the truck.

Go with the gears. I'm putting down close to 600 on the bottle and still can't get out of the hole fast enough with a big converter and 3.42s. Get the 4.10s.

I'm running a Circle D 258mm 3400. Call Chris at Circle D and tell him what you want. He'll take care of you.
