Gear ratios in the TR6060 vs T-56
So, I've been doing some research for a future transmission rebuild and I'm very curious about the different gear ratios in the new TR6060 rebuild/transform option. Anyways, from what I understand the stock gear ratios are:
First 2.66:1
Second 1.78:1
Third 1.30:1
Fourth 1.00:1
Fifth 0.74:1
Sixth 0.50:1
And with the TR6060 you can choose a gear ratio like this:
First 2.97:1
Second 2.07:1
Third 1.43:1
Fourth 1.00:1
Fifth .74:1
Sixth .50:1
Now to me this seems like a win-win, because I can keep my stock 3.42 gear ratio that I like for highway cruising at low RPMs, but gain the improved gearing for 1st-3rd. Is this an accurate appraisal, or are these ratios really too small to notice a significant difference and I would be better off just getting a regular Stage 2 T-56 rebuild and swapping to something like 4.10s?
Thanks in advance for input.
