should I get gears?
Hi All, I have a 2003 GT automatic, and am pondering my next purchase. Mods so far include: SLP X-pipe, SLP Loudmouth Catback, MAC straight Shot Intake, plus some other minor mods.
So, it looks like the next thing I need is Gears.... right?
What gears are stock in my GT? What should I get (3.73, 3.90, etc), what brand?
As far as installation, what/where? I had a guy quote me $450 which seems awefully high. Thanks for the advice.

Stock is 3.27, get Ford Racing (FRPP) 4.10s unless you plan on a supercharger, installation for $450 is about right if the shop is also supplying all the parts (ring/pinion and installation kit). Good choice on exhaust by the way!

with the auto you want to get 3.73s, 4.10 are better for the 5 speeds because they have the extra gear.
