Re: Gearing suggestions for my LS swapped truck

just curious why you put an 80e behind a stock 5.3? The gear ratios really do suck for performance.

anyone who doesn't have a 4L80e in a light truck really won't understand the problem with first gear in the 80e.

I talked to my brother for real world experience, he has 3.73 now in his c10 with a 4.8L and 4L80e. He described it as if you 'need' an 80e than you're not going to like anything else other than 4.10s. He is switching soon.
