4.10 top speed
So everyone was telling me that my top speed would be reduced to 120 or 130. Well you were all wrong hahaha I just took the stang to 140 and I still had room to go. I was at about 5000 rpm's.

in 4th gear you will top out at 107mph. and 172mph in 5th gear. It really sucks that 5th gears an overdrive.

Why? In the T56 5th and 6th are overdrives. With the 5 speed, you will notice a BIG gain in power in 5th gear. It pulls better.

No typo, theoreticlly it can. with the gear ratios yes. But the horsepower and drag may not allow it.

RE: 4.10 top speed
I wish first gear was shorter, like 2.97 instead of 3.38. It makes first so short with tall gears. Also I wish either 5th gear was not an overdrive gear like 0.79 instead of 0.67. Or better yet a six speed and that gear 0.67

Actually with the 3650 tranny I only lost like 3 mph in first gear. I was still able to take it to like 32 mph... it just gets there a WHOLE LOT faster.
