RE: Gears...how do I find out what they are?
Also FYI, if you have a set of gears out of the car that you are trying to get the number on, all you have to do is count the splines on the shaft, then the splines on the round part, then divide the big number by the little number
Ex.
10 on the shaft
41 on the gear
= 4.10

No way! I'm pretty sure my car turns 2k at 60 mph, and 3k at 100 mph EXACTLY!!!

my 06 auto has 3.31 per the door sticker
prior to 07 the 3.55 was standard on the sticks and 3.31 standard on the auto
after 07 they both got 3.31 but with an option for the stick to upgrade to 3.55

BTW, if someone has changed the gears, hopefully they changed the tag on the rear differential. Or at least written the new gear # on it with a grease pen.

just note yourspeed at say 2K RPM in 5thand match it to a gear chart. I dont recall the link but if u search for it you can find a chart for 3.55 ratio/4.10 ratio/3.73 ratio and the other stock config.
Hope that helps as an alternate to knowing

To be honest there is times now I wish I had stay with the 3;55s'. Though quicker the gas being the price it is I'm almost willing to go back being a hair slower. Top end I don't drive because I lose my job if I lose my license.

that's why I never get why the big deal to make so many cars faster.
How many are getting paid to drive 12 second Mustang?
I guess bragging rights have a high cost.
