Default '09v6 brake/gear question

First off, I want line-locks. http://www.americanmuscle.com/slp-linelock-gt500.html to be exact

it says "Fits 2007-2009 Mustang GT and 2007-2008 Shelby GT500" does that mean it won't fit my '09v6 stang?




Second question, I'm going to upgrade my rear to an 8.8" LSD with 31spline axels. what gear ratio should I get? I was thinking 4.10 but I read that that's a bad idea for the v6 at highway speeds. (and yes I know I will need to recal)

'09 v6 4.0L
daily driver, like to speed on the highway and burnout at red lights

Gear choice is a personal choice. If you drag race alot and want the most out of the car then 4.10's are the way to go. If its a daily driver and you have to drive a long way on the highway all the time 3.73's might be better for you. In way are 4.10's bad for a v6. We have a gear sticky in general tech so check that out too.
