well the title pretty much says it all. I dont know what it is, the car pulls like a freight train if your doing 10mph and punch it, but if your at a dead stop and get on it it bogs and slowly builds up

100k mile car... all stock and 2.73's

is this normal?

 

Its probably those 2:73's.

 

Get you some 3.73's and you wont ever know what bogging is. On the other hand you wont be too familiar with traction either, unless your at a roll. I drove a few 2.73 geared LT1's and they are slow as $hit, but with mods they can go pretty fast.

 

are 2.73's the stock gearing for a 97 auto? ive heard mixed answers before and am curious. also is it the 4l60e i think thats what its called and is it a decently strong/reliable transmission? sorry for all the questions but they have been on my mind for a lil bit

 

Is this a car you just got, or have had for a while? Did this just crop up recently, or has it always been slow to you?

 

2.73's and 3.23's came in autos and 3.42's in manual cars.

 

alright well ill assume i have 3.23's since it throws you in your seat in every gear. thanks

 

RPO Codes are:

GU4 - 2.73
GU5 - 3.23
GU6 - 3.42

 

located either on the drivers door or in the glove compartment

 

cool, apreciate it guys

 

sweet i have a gu6 so its equipped with 3.42's, funny though i wasn't aware automatics could come with 3.42's. oh well though im happy
