But seriously... iv had 4.10s and 3.73s in an NA 2v and I wouldnt recommend anything except 4.30s.

Hossy at least Rockwell didn't start on his X pipe rant....lol

If it's an auto 4.30s would be perfect IMO. 4.10s are nice but not enough for an auto.

If you are an auto, there is a very different route you need to take to increase performance compared to the stick guys. Most of the common bolt-on modifications people tend to do first to these cars really only make a big difference for stick cars. But either way, the best bang for your buck right off the bat would be a set of gears. I recommend 4.10s for a stick car and 4.30s for an auto. The cruising RPM difference really isn't much going up to a numerically higher set of gears, but the performance increase are huge.

No, its a stick. that would the only way id have it.. plus, it keeps my girl from driving it lol. I would love to do LT's but i try and do all the work myself cause money is tight and i dont have a lift. Plus droppin the crossmember sounds like a bitch. Do you have to do that with shortys?

Dropping the K member is a peice of cake, I would drop it regardless of LTs or Shortys just to save time and knuckles. I would go with gears for you're next mod IMO. Also You're car is very clean, you're engine bay is real clean I would get a polished alternator to finish that off.

so its not all its hyped up to be huh? thanks, that makes me feel alil better.. and yeah ive thought about a polished alt but thats another 200 bucks.. plus its workin fine for right now.. (knock on wood) ive had the car for alomst three years now and it was bone stock when i got it.. so, its a work in progress that i have alot of plans for.. my buddy has a buddy thats got a new set of FFRP 3.73's still in the box that he wants 100 bucks for. thinkin bout jumpin on it?? and how long can i drive on the gears before it really screws my mileage up?

and thanks for the comments, she is my baby!!! i try and keep it clean..
