ive got a five speed so do you think it would be a good idea to go ahead and swap the 3.08's out with 3.73's. Would i feel a big difference?

Another interesting thread.....

Gears might be my final mod for this car.
What gears are in my stock car now? (See signature for car specs)
What gears do you recommend installing?
I was thinking of 3.55??? How difficult is it to install new gears?

gears is not a job for a person who aint done much..... and dont got tools.... also gears is one of the FIRST things you do, not last ........ if you got a stick 373, if auto 373-410's depending on how much you drive on the highway, personaly i was very disapointed with the feel of 3.55's.....

I have 4.10's, they are very torquey but 3.73 might be a little more practical for daily driving with gas prices such as they are.
