New Rear End Gears

[MAYH3M]

Im debating whether I should put 3.73's or 4.10's in my read end. Does anybody have 4.10's? If so, what do you top out at?

Thanks

Re: New Rear End Gears

if you go on a long trip w/ 3.73's you probably wouldnt want to go over 70-75 for extended periods of time. you start going over 3k rpms.

with 4.11's you probably wouldnt want to go too far out of town unless you have a 6spd

3.73's are a good choice, all around gear.

4:10's, 6000rpm, 4L60E, 255/60-16's = 160mph in 4th gear. (if you have the power)
That was by two different Speed Calculators. Third gear will get you approx 112 mph. 55 and 70 runs 2200 and 2600 rpm by the calculators. But, with 3:42's I'm doing 2k at 55 so I see you doing 2400 rpm at 55. (20% diff between 4.10's and 3.42's)

Or at 6500 you get Smoke's speed !!!
