Gears are chosen and engineered based on the power band of the engine (among other things). A lower gear doesn't always result in better gas mileage or any real benefit, since you have to plant your foot a lot more (or downshift more) to accelerate, maintain speed up slight hills, etc.
Driving a lower gear at low RPM is a product of torque, and our engines aren't known to produce a ton of that below the boost range. It would probably be a blessing for the hybrids, since the LS motor has re-god-damn-diculous amounts of torque compared to ours.
That said all of this results in what appears to be a 4 to 500 rpm drop at any given point.

Scott Dewitt 720 443 2771 for gears.
if he ain't got an answer right that minute, he'll have one for you within 48 hours.
(I'm tellin' you man, he's got the secret Euro **** gear suppliers in his back pocket).
install/rebuild? Kevin Gross or Scott.
East Coast/Texas challenged? Roger Brown at CMS, Lake Havasu.
