4.10's are lame and loose big end that's what our cars were made for,top end.
With 3.45 gears I top out 4th at 155-160mph with 4.10's 135mph
and if anyone has shifted into 5th would also know she falls flat on her face in 5th.
4.10's will get you better 60ft times over the 3.45's but with the extra shift takes it right back.
Reinstalled 3.45 back in her and happy again.
