Who tows in OD??? The Idea was to lower gears and have a "3rd over" 4l80e for towing or "4th over" standard. Double OD for non towing only. btw this will be with a 8.1 vortec.

I couldn't see the point of using GV without maxing the off the line gears @ 4:10 other wise double over wouldn't be useful at all.The 4l80e has a horrible first gear ratio btw fellas.

I guess I will have to find out first hand how good a set up over that will be.
