theres only 200ish rpms between 4.10s &4.30s. you should probly get some 3.73 if your want to go fast. i dont do olot of highway raceing no faster then 100ish

an auto 2nd gear will take you to around 78-80 w/ 4.10's, third gear is very long, im not sure know exactly where it would redline but im assuming 110mph or so? stock is 120+

Would'nt 4:30's be overkill? I mean you are trying to race your car not pull out a tree stump right? Personally I prefer to stick with my stock gears, that way I am still faster than you top speed

I've raced several carsfrom 100 up..and can click 150 mph....lots faster(than anything so far except a new vette,,,)due to the better gear mutipication..you might(given enough road )go faster at some point...but not from 0-150....or 70 to 150..ETC...stock gears suck.....now if you wanted to go 200 mph,,,,gain 400RWHP more and leave the stock gears....LOL....

RE: Max speed in third with 4.10's?

Thats about right, I topped out at 110mph in 3rd gear at the road course track I was at. I went above redline, and I was almost worried about my car falling apart, but then shifted to 4th, smooth as hell, got to 120mph and made the turn.
