honestly, its tough to just put that question without any info...auto or 5speed...do you daily drive it or weekend toy. with that in mind i voted 3.73 just because its a good all around gear, however if it a weekend toy, or you dont drive it that often, or if its auto, go 4.10 or even 4.30.

Ok sorry it was late last nite and I was tired from working 16 hours at work. It's 5 speed. Not going to be a weekend toy or daily driver. Just looking to make it faster. I know both are better than the stock 3.55. But from what ive been seeing in magazines most have the 3.73 setup. But people ive talked to are running the 4.10.
