about a brand.. dont know that i have been into stangs long enough to figure that out, but i plan on getting the FRPP gears, and actually i have a questions.. might also help the orginal poster.. would 3.73 in a 5 sp be to much gear if your on the highway once a day? i prolly drive about 10 miles on the highway about everyday, and im not too worried about mpg buuut if im running 4 grand in 5th.. ya that would suck.

..man i always have long posts [&:]

EDIT: prices.. 3.73's prolly around $150 - $180 im guessing.

3.73s shouldnt be to steep Especially if you are only going 10 miles a day on the freeway.

Or just go in between, 3.90's! No JP, get yourself a set of FRPP 3.73's.

Yeah, 3.73s are fine. I dont' drive on the highway so I'm contemplating getting 4.10s for my 5-speed...It's a tough choice.
