Re: Glock's new project: "Fred" w/ 5.3L LS swap info

Since the entire idea of the build going in was economy with performance, the 3.42's was the perfect choice. Since my drive to town is about 10 miles of interstate, the 3.42 keeps me in a good rpm range for the economy, but there is more than enough power on tap when I want it. I can still destroy ricers and newer muscle when called for, and they don't have a clue what had just happened.
