gears

[philly rs]

hey guys, what gears should i get for my car, i was thinking 3:73's, not to extreme what do u guys think?

[Mr. Luos]

M6?
4.10's if it is.

[Genopsyde]

3.73's

[666_speed]

3.73's

[KevinG]

Depends. I never take my car on the highway... I have 4.10s with an Auburn LSD. All I can say is I will NEVER go back.

Like Kevin said, it depends. I got 4.11's, with a 305tpi and 700r4. Most will say it's a really bad combo, up top anyways. But it's really fun down low, i really don't care for all that high speeding... right now anyways. Until i get some significant power increase of some sort.

i would go with 3.73 if you still have to do some highway driving. although the 4.10 would be bad ass.

Hey philly how much are u paying to get your tranny rebuilt?

[Earlsfat]

I would do 4.10's (4.11's) - then again I really don't care to go much over 90 @ 2500-3000 rpms. Richmond's website has a calculator that'll help you figure out what you want ... WWW.RichmondGear.Com

my boy who's doing the work said it was going to run 1400, but my car is under warranty so he bumped up the price a little, and he's throwing in a 3200 stall and a shift kit. he was trying to find a way to build me a race tranny so it would cost me very little but it ended up being around 900 out of my pocket. i would have loved to do that because he charges 2400 for that job, but i spent madd cash on tires, a trq arm, and not to mention the cash i droped on the sound in my car last month...but im sure what ill end up with will be sweet. and i think im gonna go with the 3:73's i like my top end, and i do alot of highway driving. thanks guys

2400 Aint bad, i paid 2100 for mine and it's one of the best mods, your defitnetly going to be able to feel the difference.

if your not into highway driving i would go 4.11's if your going to be doing highway driving i would go 3.73

[FormulaLT1]

3.73's is a pretty much perfect street/strip ratio for a 4L60-E LT1
