you can't just "take them off".. most places charge 400 dollars to install them. dont get 3.55's just get 4.10's. i wouldn't even bother with 3.73's

its just not necessary tho.. i have a high mileage engine with an original clutch on it.. that i plan on keeping original for a couple more years. If i put 4.10's its gunna lead to too much shifting and more wear on my clutch. ill pass

Even when you are going to swap to 3.73's it's going to lead to more shifting, so I don't understand your arguement on that..

WOW I am soo confused. like most everyone else I am with the guys on going with 4:10`s . But I also am worried about them being too much. I drove a car with 3:73`s in it and it was not bad . I am almost ready to order the 4:10`s.

Why don't you listen to all these people that actually have done gears.. I will tell you something, just about everyone that has gotten 3.73's say they wish they got 4.10's... I'm with them.. I was on here awhile ago and everyone was into 4.10's too high for a mustang and this and that... So I bought into it, and got 3.73's.... Now, I do love them, but I'm so used to them and now I'm wanting more... I get 22 mpg with 3.73's and getting 4.10's wouldn't make that much of a difference..

What you have is "always wanting more" syndrome.... people like yourself, 4.10s arent going to be enough. Like me and systems, i have 2 15's packed into my stang, and now that im used to it, I want to get more out of it. 4.10s wont be good enough, once you get used to them. Save yourself the time and skip little steps like gears and go with a 347 stroker engine and try and get around 400-500 hp's... well, until that gets old. You could always slap a 460 block into your stang... gears arent your answer, you simply need "more HORSEPOWER"
