What gears, 3.42 or 3.73's??? What gears?? I have a T56 viper trans. Im building a twin turbo LS1 (402ci) that will make between 750-850hp. The turbos will be at full boost @ 2000rpm (12lbs) the cam is a Comp. XR265HR 1500-6800rpm. This is not a drag car. Im looking for the best balance beween performance and mpg.

Yes, with fuel injection you will be able to run at 1400 rpm without any problems. I agree that you should keep the 3.42 gears that you already have. With turbos, the 3.42 gear will help to put a load on them. Bob
