Just checking on which set up to go with on a turbo lt1 race car

 

A little more info would help. Weight, est. torque/horsepower, what are your goals? What do you want out of the car?

 

3100lbs. 800-900rwhp, 5.9s.

 

Well, you're weight is in the right ball park to run a glide with ease. It's a lighter transmission (especially when holding a glide vs a T400 over your head!) and in a basic form it will be a little more efficient. Especially for 1/8th mile racing. It will lug the motor a little more, which the turbo will like as well. Overall it's a nice setup. On the street it will not be too bad. The lower first gear will make it pretty nice. And 2nd gear is one to one just like the T400, so you will not be giving up anything there. As far as first gear goes, you can get different ratios for it. The lower gear is nice for building boost and leaving on then say something like a T400's first gear. Your 60's will be a little easier to maintain at least.

 

Thanks alot DERTY.
