What year is your truck? I seem to think that 88-94 TBIs had numerically lower gears vs. the later Vortecs? I don't know if it was because the TBIs had good low-end torque? My nephew's '90 C1500 F44 ECSB 350 had something like 2.73s. He did a LQ4/TH400 dragster swap and got regeared to 4.10. My brother's C1500 RCSB has 3.08 also. I don't know what my Dad's 89 1500 RCSB has, but probably something along those lines.
Didn't the later 1500 Vortecs have 3.42/3.73s mostly? Or maybe it was as the ECSB became more popular over the RCSB? Heavier truck requires numerically higher gears?
Mine’s a ‘94 model.
Am I better off buying a master rebuild kit, and then diff and gears separately? Or is there a master kit that would come with all of it together? I saw Jegs had one, but it wasn’t a Torsen style diff. Just looking for recommendations and experience.
