I'd go with the 3.73's. The 4.11's will drop your top end some and increased rpms at hiway speeds and will cost you in gas miliage. I put the 3.73's on my auto w/ a ford traction lock diff. Some increase in drivetrain noise, and higher rpms around 2300rpm at 65mph. My gas mileage is about 19.7 mpg. Thats a mix of highway and city driving, with a heavy foot
You will need a tuner to adjust your speedo and help the transmission hit it's shift points properly. Have fun driving

people really need to stop interchanging TOP END with TOP SPEED, they will lower your theroretical top speed, and your top end will stay the same, it will just come up faster
