Re: Gearing
If you run that 283 under 2k rpm on the highway you will lose mpg. Even on the highway the engine will be lugging. You will end up with a transmission that searches in and out of overdrive if you go that route. Your probably pretty close to being in the sweet spot now. Have you driven the truck yet to know what kind of mileage its getting?
