My overall ratio will be 3.11:1 , That was the only chain that was available. I could of gotten a 2.93 but wanted better acceleration. I can handle wheel spin with the throttle input. Thanks , i've not actually received the software yet , just trying to get a jump on things. Thanks as usual 08 pimpala ss

I'm positive , and its not a standard ratio , its a GM racing chain that is making that final ratio with

GM Racing 1" chain set is a rare combination that gives you 36 drive / 34 driven (36/34 = 1.059) so 3.29/1.059 = 3.11:1 which is my new overall gear ratio
