My Dad just ordered a new Silverado with the 8.1 w/Allison Transmission and he is curious what the gear ratios are in the tranny.  He has searched the dealer sites and has not been able to come-up with much technical information.  Any help you may provide will be much appreciated!

Jack the thing up, drop the tranny out, take the sunuvagun apart and start counting.


Seriously, I'm sure you could call GM (not the dealer) and find out.  You might have to call Allison, but GM should know.   Buddy here (worked for GM in the powertrain division) says to find the model number on the transmission and look www.gmpowertrain.com
