All dpends on what are you driving..............year of the car, auto vs manual, race car vs daily driver, supercharged/juiced?..etc etc. there are many factors...........I personally like the 3.73's with my Nitrous injected engine.,..</P><edited><editID>N2OJunkie</editID><editDate>38028.5466203704</editDate></edited>

I agree with hotrodman.....if your stang is a daily driver the 410s would blow, They would be nice if you went to the track A LOT, butt if your driving back and forth to work each day, go with the 3.73's you still get great accell. but your not sacrificing your top end at all ( for highway use and such). When I put in my 3.73's it knocked an easy 3 tenths of my quarter time!

If you have auto, go with the 4.10's.</P>


Not a daily driver, go with the 4.10s</P>


Daily driver, go with 3.73's</P>

I have a buddy that has an '02 Stang that 1/4's in high 12's N/A, &amp; has 4.30's! BTW...IT IS HIS DIALY DRIVER! The most expensive issue w/4.10's is the need to get DR's for better traction. Tires have to be replaced anyway, so it's really no big deal.</P>

I'm happy w/mine.</P>
