i put g.m. in my 2001 last week.went to the track,and not worth the money to me.i gained 5 hundreths on my 60 ft.i put the 3.23's back in.the guy who set the gears up,set them too tight,so i wouldn't sell them to anyone.they were used gears that were given to me.plus you may need to raise shift points after the install.i was hitting the rev limiter.
