do 3:73 Gears Make a Big Difference?
 
How Much Time off of the quarter mile and 0 to 60 seconds Will 3:73 Gears Take Away on a 94 mustang Gt?

What are stock gear size on that car?

ProShifterGT 05-24-2005 03:30 PM

i think they are 3:08 not sure

WaterDR 05-24-2005 05:04 PM

Going to 3.73 would be like a 99+ GT going to 4.10's if the 3.08 size is correct. Either way, you should notice a real difference with the new gears.

beef up the axle and go 4.10. your not runing a supercharger, you will be fine

i'm pretty sure the ratio was 3.27, not quite sure but i'll check

good luck with the stang, i'm looking to get the same kind (but a '95)

You probably have 3:27's, you will feel a big difference. 3:73's will give you a greater umph off the line. Trust me on that one.

ColoradoStang 05-25-2005 09:43 AM

there were two ratios offered 3.08 and 3.27

either way the gears will add some "oomph"

ProShifterGT 05-25-2005 12:57 PM

i aint goin 4:10s cause i still want my top end gas mileage to be good with this high gas prices 3:73s are good enough for me i hear alot of good things about them.. how much time off the quarter mile do u think it will take off
with the gears and the mods i have

The 94s and 95s came with 3.08s. Go with the 3.73s best all around gears. People I know with 3.55s wish they had 3.73s and those with 4.10s wish they had 3.73s. 4.10s get you in and out of your power band to quickly. Other words a car with top end will pull away and keep pulling away. Peace.

Ahh, guys, all 94's and 95's came with 2.73 Gears. Cobras came with 3.08's

I believe until the 99+ they started coming with 3.27's stock from the factory.

Youll definately notice a huge difference. V8syndicate dropped his times but .5 a second witha 99+ car with 4.10s, so you'd prolly do something similar coming from 3.08's.

That's what I thought too.

A lot of people overlook 3.90 gears. A great toss-up between 3.73s and 4.10s.
