3.73s will make your car feel like what it should have felt like from the factory 4.10s will make your car feel quick.

RE: Top Speed With Gears.......

with 3.73's your top speed will be higer than your top speed with stock gears. This is because when you hit your drag-limited top speed you will be at a higher rpm and thus making more horsepower.
