65mph with 4.10's will be around 2400 rpm in 5th (1900 stock).

ORIGINAL: Adam03GT

So if i am at 2k rpms at 65 (or so) what is it going to be with 4:10s? Estimated of course.. What is the usual price on the gears and for install? sorry not meaning to hijack.

I had 3.90's with my 04' GT and I thought it was the perfect comprimise... especially if you go F/I in the future... 4.10's are fine with F/I but a lot of people dont like em...

If you plan on getting a lot of power adders and running some serious hp, i'd go 3.73, if not go 4.10's.. if you still cant decide go 3.90..

Go 4.10's if you have an Auto, otherwise stay with 3.73 Just my 2 cents.
