Installed 4.10s & T-Lok last night!
Out with the 3.31 one wheel wonder in with the 4.10 T-Lok. Got it all back together about 10pm last night.
What a huge improvment! At part throttle there is no real noticable change but at 3/4+ throttle it's wheels spinning, tires chirping, quickly reving thru the gears fun!
It's going to be a long 36 days before the race track opens [sm=bounceybounce.gif]
Were running a tire spinning 14.8 with the 3.31 open rear. I'm hoping for low 14's but the track can be very humbling.

RE: Installed 4.10s & T-Lok last night!
Went with 4.10s because of the gearing in our trannys plus going from a 3.31 to 3.73 isn't that big of a change. Plus my wife (It's her car) wanted more power down in the 0-60mph range.
The gears & T-Lok are a mintOEM set from the junk yard. ($50)

RE: Installed 4.10s & T-Lok last night!
From what I'm getting from others, I think that you are right. I've got the 3:73s and I find myself wishing for a little lower gear. I think that the 3:90 would be just about perfect. I wasn't quite ready to go with 4:11s because I still need to drive it on the highway and I don't think that I want it running such high r's. I'm hoping to go with FI one of these days and from what I understand, from those that have already done it, 3:73swork good for that.
