First off......Posi and limited slip are the same thing. Second I'd go with 3.73. I know I'll get bashed for this one, but I think 4.10 is too low to be in a daily driver type car.

WRONG A posi and a limited slip are not the same thing... I recommend a detroit true trac which is a limited slip - all gears and no clutches to burn like a posi... you cant go wrong with the true trac....
