hybrid LS

Does anyone know how hard it would be to do a hybrid tranny?
I pick up my LS tranny tomorrow for my swap
But i was wondering how hard it is to swap out the gears
like
LS
1st - 3.230
2nd - 1.900
GSR
3rd - 1.360
4th - 1.034
LS
5th - 0.787
final -

just because im going to want the long first but short second and third for boost but i dont want to be at like 4500 RPMS on the interstate

RE: hybrid LS

Yea but I already have the hydro LS like tomorrow
So I'm gonna work with what I got
If I made a full track car I'd use b16 gears
But its gonna be my DD for the most part
So I don't want them obnoxiously short
