Ok. I know as soon as I past the traps I look down and im dead on the red line. I NEVER take it to the rev limiter.

I was referring to 4th gear JD, not 5th. Amd rev limiter is at 6050 redline at 5800 (I think we were referring to different things. Top speed at 6050 in 5th with 4.10's in an 01.5 - 04 GT is 168

DUDE!!! NO WAY! Im redlining in 4th as I cross over and that was at 105 mph. LOL I was in fifth gear going down the highway beside my friends fox and I got it to 135 EASYILY!!! LOL

JD 4th should take you to 115 or so with 4.10's @ 6050 rpm (rev limiter), 4.30's would be around 110 mph

damn... what do you guys think i should go with then? 3.73s?

Thats correct because you will be hitting the rev limiter way short of the traps with 4.10's. Im red lining in fourth as I cross the line @ 105 mph.
