What ratio are you looking at going with? 3:73's? With my factory 3:42 & the 700R4 it gets moving fast, just not the grunt I'm looking for too!
I'm looking at going with a higher gear haha. I've got 3.73s and looking at 3.23 or 3.08s to help gas mileage.

3.42 to 3.73 almost seems like a waste with such little gain.

Sent from my HiDiNg PlAcE

Well I went from the 4L60 to the 4L80 so I think the 3:73’s will help compensate for the gearing difference. I’m not dead set on 3:73’s but 3:42’s aren’t cutting it, plus I need a posi unit.

I finally got around to getting my factory speedometer working. For anyone else who may need to know there is a light blue wire at the DRAC module behind the glove box that you can tie the signal from the LS ECM directly to to provide signal to the factory speedometer. I did have to change the speedometer setting to serial in HPTuners but now it works great.
