Has anyone swapped from 3.73 to 3.42 with the G56 & a 5.9?
Im tired of RPM's. I drive on the highway too much to enjoy the gearing anymore. My highway mileage can be 16 or 20 depending on speed. the 20mpg was 61mph. :badidea:
I was talkin to Bodie aka SPEEDSHIFT about this topic. He said that he can get his hands on 3.42's....somebody is making them aftermarket...but it wasn't exactly cheap. I told him to try it and let me know how much MPG's changed and he replied trying to get me to try it first :hehe:
Has anybody made this swap with a G56 and the 5.9? I can read all day about it on 6.7's but can't find much info concerning the 5.9. if its a proven ~2mpg on the highway, its probably worth the swap.....
