Default The modding addiction.

So, I just finished up my car and I absolutely love it! But now I have the modding itch again I was wondering, should the next mod I get be 4.10 gears? I have the Auto transmission and I was wondering if anyone had any input on it. I hear the 4.10s are nice and really make a big difference in these cars. By the way, mods are in sig and does this modding itch ever go away?!?

4.10s with the auto is a great combo. Go for it for sure. Modding only goes away when you've done them all. I seem to not be able to stop. I have stuff in the garage not installed yet and still am thinking about ordering more! LOL

Yeah, not sure about auto personally, but for the manual it´s a blast (to me).

Lol! Were on the same boat... This modding will get you in debt quick!


OP, I think 4.10's in an auto are a good choice, do you have 331's or 355's now?

4.10s really wake up the auto

You should also consider a higher stall torque converter, and a one piece light weight driveshaft. Delete plates finish things off nicely, and cut outs would be icing on the cake (if you like it loud!)
