If you re-read it it says stock gears the car should run 2000 rpms at 75 mph.

I got 4.10 on mine. In stock gears you are probably running right at 200 rpms at 75 mph in 5th gear. with the 4.10s i am running about 3300 rpms at 75 mph. its ok for the high way but i drive 70 miles to and from work and am about to go to the 3.73. 4.10 is fun though in the city but...... i like to keep my top end.
Are you sure your speedo is right? Because I turn 3k@80mph with 4.30s.

Did you use a tuner to change your speedo after the gear swap?Also a tire/wheel swap will throw one off.

If someone with an auto GT can help me out, I used the gear calculator and in 1 gear it was showing I should have 3.73's, and in another gear it was showin I should have 3.90's. I have another thread in this section, its called, "Check for Gears", so you can help out in that thread or in this one, just need help, thanks.
