It seams that a lot of guys with the Tremec 600, have a lot steeper gears than my 331's. Can't recall the number ? 382, high 3,.......something. lol

I'll have to search.

The 3.31s are fine. If anything I'd go taller. I'm running 3.25s now, down from my old 3.70s. With a 0.82 overdrive the 3.00s would be great for the street too. There's plenty of speed/RPM calculators available online. Your tire height is a critical part of the calculation and needs to be considered also when selecting gearing. Talk to Keith. Ask him what the minimum cruise RPM will be with your 482 combo too. Give me your anticipated tire height and I'll run a couple speed/rpm scenarios for you.
