Yep, it's really only the 94-98 sixers that don't quite have enough ponies to justify 4.10s.

Damn in the old GT, I find it hard contoling that car at times while womping on the gas, and it still has stock 2.73s, or so I'm aware, there may be a performance clutch but I'm not sure. So it brings me to my question, how do I tell if I have a performance clutch? I can tell you this, the clutch is very tight on the GT, and when I tell her to go, boy, does she go, but are there any obvious signs or anything that will tell me?
