I have a 2010 LT2/RS manual transmission. I have heard that I can put 3.73 gears in her. My trouble is I can't find anyone willing to do it because they are not specificaly made for the V6. Does anyone know of any shop that would be willing to do this in South Eastern PA!?!?!

It's the exact same rear as an SS, tell them they're morons.

Try race proven motorsports in DE.

you may want to consider 3.91 gears cause u can get a GM 3.91 gear much cheaper then an aftermarket 3.73. Also, u might consider having the dealer put it in cause u will gain a warranty if they supply the gear. If i had to do mine over again i would have gone that route. I started with the 3.73, then switched to 3.91 and found it to be more noticeable. Was little worried about that much gear cause its a DD, but not a problem and i drive 80+ miles a day to/from work.

I did...one of the girls in a Camaro group I belong to gave me their name and they wouldn't do it either.

I did notice 3.91's where cheaper but I wasn't sure what it would do to top end speeds.. I did think about a dealer. Ill have to check them out thanks

I'm interested to see if the dealers have tunes for the V6 cars yet. Chevy adverises the gears being compatable with V6 manual cars but I'd only swap if they could fix the speedo and odometer. Otherwise I'll wait till out of warranty and I'll get a tune.
