On another thread we talked a great deal about this. I looked into the gear ratios. Even though the 1LE has a higher numerical rear ratio of 3.91, if you calculate the overal ratio between rear and tranny they are so close through 2 gears that I don't believe that is the reason.

It is other factors, maybe higher output LS3's in the selection process, the tip to toe response as 'Norm' had suggested or something else. It is dramatic.

No Matter he will really enjoy this car, it is an awesome street car, with lots of potential built in if he wants more.
