Ordered 3:54 rear gears!!!
The smiles should come shortly! Going from what appear to be 2:59's to 3:54's. Can't wait. Total bill about $900 with professional install, install kit, and synthetic gear lube.

I have 3.07's and I'm thinking of 3.54 or 3.73's. I'm leaning more towards the 3.54's Let us know how your midrange feels too!! :yesnod:

Re: Ordered 3:54 rear gears!!! (cprgmr)
I used Richmond synthetic oil along with the GM additive.
Total bill for mine was:
Dana 44 with 3.45 gears=$1200(includes, driveline support and driveshaft and cover)
Vigilante Torque Converter(2800 stall)=$649
Tranny cooler and temp gauge=(actually I forget, but it was less than $100 for both)
Professional install(I ran out of time)=$350

Re: Ordered 3:54 rear gears!!! (War Machine)
They make the vette so much more fun to drive. It is so much more responsive. I dont mean to start a argument, but I have at least 10-15 time slips with 1.93 1.94 60 ft. times with the stock converter and street tires. I dont believe there are to many stock L98 going to bet me at the traffic lights. ;) Its just that the LT1 really comes alive with the gears!!
