I put a gearvendors behind a 4L60e to get an A5.
I drive my car more like a GT than a drag car.
After putting in the 3.73s the car felt like it needed another gear on the highway.
The GV .78 ratio makes 3.73 into 2.91.
With 255-60-16 tires I'm turning 2200 rpm at 80 mph.
It is expensive at 2500.00 plus instalation including a shortened driveshaft and torque arm but I'm very pleased with mine as a double OD.
