3.73 gears arent gonna cause much damage to your mpg but 4.10 will especially highway miles

Well mines a manual so i'd go with the 3.73. I'm not for sure but do you have to do the gears and tlok etc. at the same time?

I'm guessing just to save on labor costs.

But is there anything i can do to the engine that won't break the bank?

do you have a tuner yet? If not, look into one... after I get an h-pipe and duals, I plan on getting one.
