I like the look of the stock steering wheel for this project. Once I start driving it. I might swap it.

I have been using the .63 because it is more fun for road tours when you are in the mountains.

If you live in KS and you want better fuel economy get the 0.5. The engine rpm drops a lot but makes the 4-5-6 gear spacing large.

With the big gear rpm drops the engine is lugging or spinning up. It is a personal preference deal.

Mark, did you go with the close ratio and have D&D do the .50 swap on this build?

D&D can give you the tight ratio 1-5 and add a 0.5 6th. This works great with a blower motor with a ton of torque because it can pull the 3.25 rear gear and the OD. For this build with a stock LS7 I closely copied the 2014 Z/28 with a tight 1-6 and a 3.73 rear gear. It will turn a little bit more RPM at 80 but should drive great.
