Anyone by chance have or ever have a 1995-1997 2.3L 2wd automatic with 3.27 gears or a 2.5L 2wd automatic with 3.27 gears?
Im curious to see what that set up gets for gas mileage.
I have two 98 2.5L automatic 2wd trucks with 4.10s. They get up and go but don't return that great of fuel economy (20-22mpg) for a 4cyl and my new highway commute for work. I used to have a 1995 2.3L automatic 2wd with 3.73 gears and could get 23-25mpg on the highway at 55mph. Just looking for anyones experience before I throw my 8.8 with 3.27s under a 1995 2.3L I just picked up. Id rather not find out after the fact that at 55mph the transmission is going back and forth between overdrive and 3rd.
