2024 C8 transmission changes
In the order guide leaked earlier this week, there is mention of changes to the transmission for 2024. I'm surprised I haven't been able to find anything more about those changes.
Anyone care to enlighten me?
Thanks,
Paul

But they're keeping the 5.56 rear end gears. New top speed is 80MPH....

That would so SO much fun. There's something about having just a few gears, and having to use them, that can't be replaced by any amount of speed or tech.

Someone posted a response from Harlan that GM started installing the revised case design in mid-July of 2023.
