I put a 4.10 gear in mine and if i had the chance to do it over again i would put a 3.73. On the road the 4.10 drinks gas like water and on the track your lucky to get the tires to stick.

maybe you need some drag radials, everyone on this forum seems to love the 4.10's. and i think i heard you save gas with 4.10's tho i may be wrong.

unless you have a 6 speed i think that 4:10s are a waste, especially if you are going to try and hit big numbers-look at MD he had to take is 4:10s out because he was running out of gear in the 1/4

If you plan on staying NA 4.10s will help you, ALOT. If you plan on dumping an SC onto the motor, get 3.73s or 3.90s. I believe MD himself said this earlier on the first page.

He put 4.10s on and was running 13.4s and decided to go with the SC and ended up running out of gear (4th gear) by the end of the quarter.
