RE: rear end size
nice... you like your 4.10s?? Most people I know that had em with a setup close to yours, swapped em out very quickly once they had em in... and went faster - thats how I know you dont stay in your powerband long enough for the boost, lol.

so by doing that he must be winning races left and right.. by staying out of boost, right? lol... how is his traction in boost? I can tell you - he may beat you in first, second and third gear - but when I fly by him in 4th and win the race - he wont be to happy...
When looking for gears you dont want the steepest gears, you want the gears that will give you the best balance, and keep you in your powerband the longest.

i drove a PI with a vortech and a 5 speed with 4.10s, first gear is just like any other car, you shift before 3k so you stay out of boost

then why would you ever advise someone to get a blower and 4.10's? Stop giving bad advice.

You don't know what that car had... I've driven cars with FI and 4.10's... 9 times out of 10, you will actually go faster with a 3.73 then a 4.10 if you're running a lot of power on these cars - as you get more traction and you stay in the power band more getting more of your peak hp to the floor. That's the bottom line with this. If you have a built up block that is going to spin to 7000+rpms and is a track car, then by all means. The 4.10 is to steep for 95% of the cars on this website with FI. Unless you're running a blower that is putting out 350rwhp.

i know the car had a vortech, exhaust, 4.10s, STS, TB/plentum, im going to assume it had the nessisary upgrades to the fuel system and some aftermarket clutch
