3.73 or 4.10?

[Rob]

Well, i was lucky enough to go with 3.73s, 4.10s and 4.11s (Ford 9") in my 93 6 spd Formula.

My radared(?) top speed with the 3.73s in 6th was 162 (previously 157 with 3.23s)

That is with a 93 T56 which is geared differently than the 94+ T56. The 3.73 gears are just like 4.10 in the later T56's. So in a round about way, you just proved what I said 4.10 geared 93 M6 is like a 4.56 gear 94+ T56.

3.73 or 4.10

Can you use factory 3.73 instead of richmond or any other brand?

[scotts94_z28]

yes i believe the slp and motive gears are pretty much the same as factory gears

heh heh that explains a lot...

I do know that they changed the tranny gears when they went to the 42s...which is why the car is no quicker...but I will admit, I did forget that small detail

Don't listen to Rob or Injuneer. Besides them both having extensive experience and knowledge....and having been there and done that, and .....well.....thinking about it now....I guess thats 3 VERY good reasons why you should listen to them....

Me? I got 4.10's in my 97 SS and on a trip to Indy I got 30mpg.....I didn't need to shift nearly as much as my friend that had a 3.42 geared 6speed Z28 that was cruising with me to Indy2K.

A 3.42 geared Auto is similiar to a 4.10 geared 6speed (94 and up Trans).

Good luck on what you decide.
