Yes the 2.84 Gears are slowing you down, But lets also look at it this way... The 2.84 4T60-E got the 1450 Stall converter, where the 3.06 got the 1897 Stall converter...
The 1897 lets you get into the power bad a bit quicker
I think a Complete 3.06 Trans would do good for you... Unless you want to use a 3.29 or 3.33

3.29 or 3.33? Wow! Has anyone around here done that? I figure that the 3.06 will probably be a wash fuel economy wise, but either of those two might sting a bit. Then again, it would probably liven the old girl right up too.

after reading all this it seems that L36 olds', and what not, are running as fast as my 01 SSEi (L67) with not much modding. Havnt been to the track yet (on Aug 18th first trip) but seem that a SC car would spank a mildly modded N/A car. To me, after a pulley, PCM, CAI, and headers an L67 should be well(x'3) into the 14s. am I missing something? Maybe I got lost in all the reading.
