Default 4.10s Anyone?

Ive heard alot about people with 4.10 in naturally aspirated 2valves. What you guys think of this? Likes,, dislikes? Aint it harder on your tranny?? How much is the difference over stock 3.27s.

I have 3.90s in mine. I wanted to get the most out of gears but leave room open for nitrous, or supercharger, or whichever route I plan on going. No its not harder on your tranny. You are making the same power, just accelerating faster. difference can be .5 seconds in 1/4 give or take on your driving.

Thanks MattJ. My car is a daily driver and probally wont see the track once a year. I just dont like getting raped at the red lights by other mustangs with more mods than me. And from what i hear gears and a tune are some of the greatest mods you can do. Just tryin to justify bang for buck. Thanks alot

Absolutly. Best mod you can do for the price hands down. Unless yer gonna go with an adder, 4:10's should be at the top of your list, even for a daily driver. And NO THEY DO NOT KILL YOUR GAS MILEAGE!!!!!! im seeing maybe 1mpg less on the highway, maybe an extra MPG in the city when i drive easy.

I went with 3.73s in mine because Im going a turbo later, but if you are not planning to supercharge or anything than go with the 4.10s. There is just a slight change from 3.27s to 3.73s. I should have went with the 4.10s temporarily.<<<sp

yeah its a must or your speedo will say you are going 115mph when you are actually doing 65mph lol. Go with either Diablo or SCT. They are easy to handle and adjust. Those will give you a little extra power too.

I had 4.10's when I was N/A and now that I have a Centri Blower, guess what.........
I STILL HAVE MY 4.10's and they aint going NO WHERE!!
4.10's N/A are a REQUIREMENT Daily Driven or not and they are ass kicking for a Centri setup too. Just need a taller tire if I see any track time, which I don't regularly do. Still can get 22+ MPG on the highway too.

DFTG!! DON'T FEAR THE GEAR!!
