Thanks for the post.. I kept wanting to know this very thing every time I mentioned I was shot down. Got a few questions though?

2. 6th gear is much better from 70 on up, and I don't downshift as often as I did. RPM at 70 MPH is just below 2000. 3. Depends on how you drive... 1st gear would be super quick at WOT. But 3rd and 4th would rock. Side note... MPG is up to 19.8 right now so less than 1 MPG loss.

You still recommend 3.91s for automatic? I thought they said it might be too much?

Again, I'd say that it depends on how you drive. If you floor it from a dead stop traction will be an issue.

Yep traction is a issue with me special because of the crazy aggressive shift points that my tune gave it. But I don't regret the gears at all I am still so damn happy I did them. They are by far my favorite mod. You just gonna learn how much throttle to give your car instead if just flooring it all the time with no problem like you could do stock.
Also a great way to fix this is by getting Vitesse throttle contoller which you can actually lower or raise your throttle response. When I get mine I am gonna see what kind if lower I can set this so I get way more traction when I floor the car. Which would make it perfect

Techturtle, what instructions did you use?
Did the axles pop out of the diff or were special technique necessary? Also do you have NPP? Wondering about the proper way to disconnect it.

A light tug and both axles popped right out, no tools needed. I do not have NPP, I just disconnected my exhaust at the headers, and set the front end onto my creeper then pulled the whole thing out the back.

3.91 really work in the SS cars with tr6060... As your ratios are 3..01 2.07 1.43 1.1 in the first 4 gears ..opposed to
In the 1le like I have ..3.91 with mn6 tr6060 trans ratios 2.66 1.78 1.30 1.1 ......so for a 1le to compete in first 3 gears we would need 4.33 final drive ratio,,, |

The 3:91 gears are by far my best mod to date. While in bumper to bumper traffic I can cruse in first gear at 5mph and not stall. I also gained a couple of miles in city driving but lost a few on the highway.
These gears really woke the car up... highly recommend. |

JD ran the axles and set the record for his class. The stock diff cannot push the 800 HP heavy Camaro into the 9s without breaking (3? times), so he's going G Force 9". JD might get the car going toward an 8 second pass as he'll leaver harder (transbrake?) on the T400.
