T56 swap now what rear gears??
1990 gta L98 now with T56 LT1 style..
I have 3.23gears now but not right for the T56, so 3.42/3.73/4.10 are my choices..
I am leaning to 3.73 so I can actually use 6th gear.
My driving is to car shows and longer drives.. no autocross or 1/4 mile.
any one actually have experience in this area.?
thoughts??
thanks
Mike

Re: T56 swap now what rear gears??
I did the T56 swap a few months ago and I went with 3.73s. I'm loving them. In my old Formula I had 4.10s behind a T56 and the were great for drag racing, but a little much for cruising. 3.73s have my vote.

OK sounds like 3.90 would be ideal-
however- I have a 10 bolt so back to 3.73 vs 4.10.
I have 245-50/16 stock height tires.
I am leaning toward 3.73.

Re: T56 swap now what rear gears??
see why I come here, did not realize 3.90 was an option
3.90 seems to be the right choice for me.
trans was from 1996 Camaro so it is .5 OD
thanks
