RE: Top speed with 4.10's, big deal?
I was told that you will top off at 153-155 mph with 4.10s. I think my 06 GT auto has 3.55's and getting to that speed was a b^%*&. If it wasn't for gas prices I'd switch to those because I never in my life went faster than 170 (diff car) in the first place so 15mph is not a big deal. To those who are getting 22mpg in 5th at 65, that's a really crappy gas mileage. I'm running 29mpg at that speed, believe it or not. Mods listed below

The 4.10 aren't even that bad to begin with as far as gas is concerned

If my car werent my DD, I would have 4:10s or even 4:30s! Gas strays me away from these gears

If you really wanna know the top speed ... just jump in your stang on an open HWY with a passenger and have them hit the reset button on the speedo over and over again to see where it stops at ... might take awhile so you would need a nice long open stretch of road to the middle of no where -- umm like the road headed to Vegas ... plenty of space there around 3-4am [:-] [8D]
