Re: front and rear end gears??

I'm running 35's with 3.73's in my K5 and I'd go a little deeper in the gearing department. Granted, my little 350 is of unknown age and tired, but even with more power your loosing a lot of that torque just getting the 35's rolling. 35's and 3.73's is roughly similar to 33's with 3.42's. 35's really are best with minimum 4.10's or 4.56's. Since you are seeing some street time, 4.10's should give you the best of both worlds.
