    I would go for 4.10s until your 3.4 is putting out more power

        4.10 might still be overkill for that

              You can run 4.56's if you want bad gas mileage and only drive it at the track...

                I was personally leaning towards 4:10s, I think I might stick with them, but does anybody know if someone has run these on a v6?

                  Contrary to what some internet sources will tell you, quite a few people run 4.10 gears with their V6's. I'm one of them. The fastest Cam-only V6 is another. The fastest stock-internals 3800 is another one too.

                    I've had 4.10s in my 3.8 and loved them
                    Wont recommend them for a stock 3.4 N/A car though

                        I've never heard of a 3.4 with 4.56s
                        I'm sure its probably been done? so IDK

                          sorry to bring back a dead thread

                          but I think 4.56s in a 3.4 is rediculous (unless you wanna race only the 60 foots or 1/8th mile) ...and the car wouldnt be a highway driver for sure

                          putting in 4.56s would leave no room for a higher stall
                          you 3.4 guys have an even smaller/shorter powerband than us 3.8s!!
                          http://engine.firebirdv6.com/
                          Once you go over that powerband, your not making peak power anymore
                          Instead of outrageous gears you should consider a stall with less gear than 4.56 (maybe 3.73s)

                          You havent even told us if you have a manual or auto?
                          and havent filled out your user description....sorry, but youre the typical n00b ;)
                          and this :rant: :rant: is me when people dont give any info about their cars :tdown:
