I fixing to order my gears. I pretty much settled on 3.73's..... then a friend of mine is really trying to talk me into 4.10's. He's almost got me sold on 'em, he just put 3.73's in his from 4.56 I think. Of course his is a turbo car with one of those sheet metal intakes... BIG POWER. He said with my mods that 4.10's would work out OK but that 3.73's are good too. What do you guys think? BBK LT's, Flows, Underdrives, MSD Ignition, 9mm wires, advanced timing, Pro-5.0, aluminum drive shaft, Moroso CAI, and hopefully NOS 100 shot soon. Will I regret 4.10's? </P>


Oh yeah... forgot.... it's a '91 LX 5-Speed</P><edited><editID>karma279</editID><editDate>37976.6415509259</editDate></edited>

OK... I guess I will order those. I just wondered if 4.10's give you enough extra "umph" to counterbalance the loss in gas mileage and high rmp's.
