4.8L Performance?

Ya i always say gears and 80e swap firstvtho that way you have a good foundation to reak havoc on the streets!

Absolutely. You can have a monster motor but without a even better trans your just asking for trouble.

Crazy Blu I just noticed you're from Mansfield. I'm from the Center area! You know any good shops in east texas to install gears?
 
Yes i know the best gear installer in east texas! Hes practically a brother to me! How close is center from paris?

Ohh hell your far! Josh and i are from the other Mansfield the one outside ft worth! But still your 3 hrs from paris but strongly strongly suggest justin! If your on facebook add me jeffrey Monroe moore then add justin harris! If you have a press he will most likely make the trip to you! This kid can set up some gears like its no body's business!

im lookin into either some 3.90s or 4.11s around how much did he do yours? you can pm me if you want
 
He has a fairly low install price lemme txt him to double check... for your info tho before you order he charges double if you use usa gear cayse they are shitty and you will be back for a better gear the next wk! Ill pm u the price once he replies!

You could talk to Jesse tho believe hes friends with one of the fort worth gearband axle guys and theybdo good work but pricey!
 
i talked to him about it not long ago, i have a cousin in rgv that can pick them up for about $100 (yukon i believe) just kinda shopping around lol
 
Yukons are ok but whine like nobodys business!!! Oem is your best bet in most cases!

If you are running a 29"-31" tire you will nut yourself over the street manners of 3.90s! They are kickass!
 
i have a 29 now might go a tad lower next not too sure on that yet but i hear the 3.90s are pretty beasty and i daily my truck too so 4.11s might be too much for me

Nah ain't got a Facebook but I need one lol I wouldn't mind driving 3 hours to get it done, though I'm sure the trip back would suck since you're not supposed to exceed like 55 right? Nearly everyone out here charges an arm and a leg for below par services. I wouldn't mind getting some 3.90s or 4.10s.

You make those 3.90s sound real good. Could you pm me a price as well?

While I'm thinking about the other Mansfield is actually over in Louisiana and it's maybe a 40 minute drive from my house. lol So I guess technically ya'll are the only Mansfield, TX.

Listen to Jeff, he knows his stuff very very well. The guy I have always used for my stuff is a guy that specializes in ford performance (like lightnings, cobras, etc) but knows his chevys too. I havent ever had a prob with his work so I always used him.

You wouldnt by a chance be on TBH?
 
the first thing you need to decide before you spend any money is how you want to make your power, N/A or boosted. Then, set up a game plan and go from there.

Good adivce. I think to the OP'er needs to not invest much money into the 4.8/60e as you will be let down. I really think you need to slowly but surely find a 6.0/80e and build to the specs you want out of it. Gearing with trutrac right now wont hurt you as you will have the rearend unless you get into big power then the rearend needs to be bigger.
 
As of right know I'm going with some heads, injectors, cams, gears, & a tune. Would like some bolts but don't really know what they are & do! Noobz :nono: but I'm willing to get my hands dirty to learn
