cant forget to shift lol

 

4.10

 

3.73 thats my vote!!

 

go for 3.73s i don't like my 4.10s with my t5 i awalys start out in second every ware.

 

I think I am going to go 3.55's since I do some highway driving and my other DD driver has died on me -

 

nothing wrong with that, i love mine

 

So 4.10s are def the way to go for autos? Or does it depend on your set-up?

 

most ppl say it is w. an auto. i dont have an auto, so i cant vouch for that... but thats all i ever hear, 4.10 for an auto

 

I had 4.10 gears in a previous 5.0, they were OK ,but I prefer 3.73 gears overall. I guess it's all personal preferance

 

4.10 for everything, unless you have a blower .25 mpg will not save you any money unless your a welfare recipient. if it's gonna make that much of a diff, sell the 5.0 and buy a escort.

a '95 all stock w/ 4.10's , 5-speed , and sticky tires will go hi 13's if you can drive. but could range from 13.80-14.20's (or 15's if you plan on driving on street tires at the strip)

1st gear is good to about 20 mph, assuming your shiftpoint is 5200 rpm or w/ normal driving you'll be shifting about the middle of the road you just crossed from the stoplight.

you'll turn about 3000 rpm's at 80 mph
at 80 mph you'll turn about 2750 w/ 3.73's
at 80 mph you'll turn about 2500 w/ 3.55's

you can expect to ADD a tenth to your et for every gearset that you get below 4.10's (a tenth slower w/ 3.73's and 2 tenths slower w/ 3.55's)

going from 2.73 to 4.10 will CUT a full second off your ET (if you hook)

my current car gets 21.25 mpg w/ the ac running and keeping it around 75 mph on the freeway (all tank on the freeway except the 4 miles RT on my commute to and from the freeway) w/ 4.10's
