Gearing Calculator

This page allows you to compare various gear ratios and tire sizes to find your engine RPM in each transmission gear. Final Drive, Transmission Ratios, and Tire Diameter can all be manually edited if needed. For automatics, it is assumed the convertor is locked. Convertor slip varies based on load and RPM so it is hard to model accurately. Note on torque calculations: Output Torque is calculated assuming no drivetrain loss. It is not the same as the rear wheel torque from a chassis dyno, as that is calculated based on horsepower and RPM. This number can be used to show differences in torque multiplication with different tire sizes and gear ratios. Remember, gearing is not just about RPM!

Welcome to GMT400.info. I decided to start this site to compile as much information as possible on the Chevrolet/GMC GMT400 trucks and SUVs. I was looking for one place that was easy to search and link to for everyone interested in these trucks. I hope you find it useful!
