I've got some 4:10's here in the floor, bought them to go with my AOD. BUT, I just made a sweet deal this week on all the stuff I need for a t5 swap. Looks like I'll have 4:10's with the t5, can not wait...

89MustangGT50- I thought you were going a AOD to t5 swap?

lol im sure i would hate 4.56's too... thats too much gear... but i do like the 4.10's. i would definately say if u can afford the gas go with 4.10... the power differance is amazing... the only reason i did them is because my brother went with 3.73s and he said he wished he went with more gear... so i got the 4.10's and love it. its hard on gas though.

I have always put 4.10's in my mustangs, thinking about going with 3.73's in my new SN. Someone talk me out of it.

its a 5 speed and its great... hard to say the traction differance because my orignal posi was slipping and i got that rebuilt too... the pull is amazing but it tacs 2500 @ 65

I have 4.30's in mine and I tach 2800 at 80 mph. Speedo gear isnt corrected so I had a buddy drive next to me. LOL
First gear is useless when stepping on it. I personally think it is too much for my E-303 cam. Its sucks at the track. Gas mileage is decent if I keep it a steady 2500 on the freeway, but I hate driving slow. I have a set of 4.10's in the trunk, but I want 3.73's, maybe some 3.90's. I cant even go down to third on the freeway. I have to slow down to like 40-45 mph.[:@]

I installed the 3.73's in mine a while back. It was perfect for being a daily driver. I even got better fuel mileage. I was going to install 4.10's but I spend alot of time on the interstate. The 418w I am starting on will make up the difference here in the near future.
