Seemed a lot quicker, I will end up doing the same to mine soon. After I get a different DD these 3.42's are coming out.

I drove a few extra miles today(100) to get a few more miles on it after the break in.
On the 1st video it was on the cheap gas, 2nd and 3rd was on shell premium gas.

Until I get the 6.0 in the next few weeks, I won't get it tuned. That light comes on and off randomly. The tranny is getting rebuilt here shortly. In the video there was no slipping but it slipped on the way back from willis today from 65-85 about 2 rpm. Shifting will be better with the rebuild.

I can definitely tell it's faster with the 3.73s. But hell, get a tune !! That 5200 shift point is sickening. A converter will make a massive difference too.

I am getting my LY6 6.0 installed in a few weeks with a 2800 stall along with the other goodies & tune in my sig. Tranny rebuild is also happening in 2 weeks earlier than I thought.
