Re: 700r4 is in.

So based on what I read here a 30% overdrive with 3.08s is too much overdrive, but 3.73s would be better. So the doing the math it sounds like the a good "amount of overdrive" is about 13% over stock, does that sound right?

My reasoning; 3.08s are turning the engine 17% slower than 3.73s at the same road speed, then add in the 30% overdrive with the 3.73s and you have a total change of 13% [30-17].
