Someone with internet skills can probably link to the gear ratios and speed at redline info for each gear from another thread.
Putting 3.91 gears in a standard SS would make much more of a torque multiplying type effect at the wheels that some are talking about.

Good point that i forgot about. The 1LE is making more power to the ground with the lighter wheels and tires also. This reduction in unsprung weight will help accelerate and brake better.
