My son's truck came with the 3.08 gears, but at that time it had a 350C tranny and that worked well for that truck setup. We then put in a 700 R4 and the mileage went out the bottom. The 3.73s gave that mileage back to us and the acceleration is great. Especially with the lower first gear in the 700 tranny.
