Video saying bye bye to 3.90 Gears
Well, I wasn't going to throw them out without smoking the tires with them one last time! 
Hopefully, those Motive 3.90 gears will be replaced tomorrow with Ford Racing 4.10 gears.

RE: Video saying bye bye to 3.90 Gears
just realized that I can get a pretty good idea of what my 0-60 times could be from the video! The car starts moving at around 17.5-17.8 seconds and reaches 60MPH at 22-22.3 seconds. So I should be doing 0-60 in around 4.5 seconds, I hope!!! [sm=drooldude.gif]

Reaper, which brand are you thinking of getting the 3.90s from? I don't know about the Machs, but for the 05+ GTs I wouldn't recommend the Motive 3.90s. Too many people have had problems with them, that's why I'm replacing them, too much whine. I'll see how big of a difference the 4.10s make pretty soon. I might have some new videos on Thursday. 
Stang9325, smoking=chirping the tires, don't take it too literally!

RE: Video saying bye bye to 3.90 Gears
The same day I had my Ford 3.73's done a guy was having Motive 3.90's done. I swear i sat there and watched them have so much trouble with those freakin things for hours. They had to run and get a new set b/c they were chipped. My car was finished over 1 hour sooner and was started over one hour later.
This was just my observation but Mustang Magic told me this wasn't the first time thay had problems w/ Motive. You would think Ford would produce 3.90's if there is such a demand.
