first gear is done in like 4 seconds lol but 2nd pulls so hard and so does 3rd. 45mph @ 2500rpm in 4th , 70mph@2600rpm in 5th. still streetable plus you got the t3650 which has a better overdrive gear for shorter gears.

The 4.30's are awesome, plain and simple. I remember giving ben790450 this same advice when he was wondering. They are fine on the highway, I still get 22 mph cruising at 70 - 80 mph. After I put the drag radials on the car, I managed to take over half a second off of my previous best (before the 4.30's and DR's). I say that 4.30's are great for a N/A car, and even a F/I car if it is built right and has a proper suspension. Tires are crucial though.

So, are we saying 4.30's on a N/A FTW??? I guess my new decision is 4.10's vs. 4.30's. [8D]

Damn, 70 mph @ 2,600 rpm. I'm at 2,050rpmgoing 80 mph now [8D]... Brings up a good point. The T3650 has a different 5th gear than the T45. I guess I'm limited to 4.10's on my car.

I am having my 4.10's put in on friday so once i get the gear broke in i will drive over to raleigh and meet you there so you can get a feel for them.

I alwyas figured that I would get 3.73's but now I'm thinking of going to 4.10's. I want to drive someone's car who has 4.10's before I make my decision. Hey Brian, next time we meet up I'm going to get a feel for those 4.10's.
