I have a 302 that should be good for about 320HP mated with a t-5 with a 2.95 1st and a 0.63 5th gear. I'm thinking 15-16 inch torq thrust II's with some nice meaty tires. I'm trying to decide what rear end gears to go with. My local guru (a mopar fan, but with excellent understanding of mechanics and physics) thinks that 4.10's are the gears to go with. Mustangers are suggesting everything from 3.55's to 4.10's with passion behind their answers. I will not be racing this other than to the grocery store and back, or maybe an occasional 4 hr road trip at 70-85 MPH. What do you, the experts think?

I have 3:73's and really like them. A buddy has 4:10's and seems like his is a lot more fun from stop light to stop light but not cruising.

I have 3.73's as well but for the purposes you describe I would put in 3.55's. The car will still have plenty of zip and it will fo ok on the long trips as well.
