So I did the 5- 15 minute drives with an hour, or overnight, cool down periods and now I’ve probably driven it 5-6 other times and maybe have 200 miles on it. I’ve heard others say to baby it a little until 500 or so miles so that’s what I’m doing. I’m not a hot rodder anyway, hence the V6 under the hood.
I have noticed that the change from 3.07 to 3.50 to 1 makes the gear changes shorter. It seems like I’m in third gear by 10-15 mph. It’s also wound a little higher on the freeway. I’ve only gone a short distance at 60-65 so no chance to measure it yet. I’m guessing my days of trying for the 30 mpg range are behind me. I’m going to take it to a guy I know and have the rearend ratio reflashed in the ECM.
I’m unable to test the posi yet. Still too new, but I know it’s there from turning the wheels during install.
I hope you enjoyed the recap of my install.
