gear questions

What's up guys? If I was to change the AIRPLANE gears out of my camaro and go to a lower gear ratio, what else would have to be changed. I know I would have to set the speedo but would it be ok to install a downshift sleeve to give me the extra gear when racing? What do you guys think? Thanks!

What is a downshift sleeve?

You don't need anything but the gears, and correction gears for your speedo, assuming your bearings are ok.
