Default gearing combo
Dirk, If you are really set on removing the C6 and putting in the AOD, then my vote is for a set-up similar to Gerry K's in his ride. The beauty of the AOD is that low crusing rpm. Before Gerry K posted his set-up I would have recommended a rear ratio between 3.25-3.55. The 3.55 may give you the best seat of the pants tire smoking "WHoa !!" you're looking for. You'll need sticky tires to run with that combo for maximum enjoyment, like a set of drag radials.
