I installed a T5 transmission from a 1987 Chevy S10 in my Town Sedan. Overall I'm quite happy with it. However, 1st is very low. In fact I feel all the gears might benefit from a better rear end gear ratio but I'm not sure what gears would be best. I currently have a the stock 3.78 gears. I would appreciate any thoughts on this matter.
