Thanks all Chris ------------------ 1996 GT full exhaust and underdrive pullys: 14.6 @93 MPH |
If I remember corretly, your 96 should have 3.08 or if it had the up graded rear-end u might have a 3.27. If I'm wrong sorry. But I'm pretty sure I'm right.

Not disputing anyone here but I thought stock was 2.73 and the option was the 3.27
I have(I thought) the stock 2.73's and in 5th will cruise at 70-75 right around 2000rpm's. I'll have to check my door tag agin... now i'm curious. BTW stang1996gt those are nice numbers for your 96.

i have an auto in my beast (i dont know if that has anything to do with it) but im planning on upgrading to 3.73's or 4.10's...what would you go with, with my auto?
thanks guys ------------------ 1996 GT full exhaust and underdrive pullys: 14.6 @93 MPH |
The general thought is 3.73's for a manual and 4.10's for an auto.

The mpg loss is negligable although it might be slightly different for an auto. A couple of guys around here with 5 speeds say they actually get better mileage around town as you're upshifting sooner and tend to cruise at a lower rpm range. Ask around but i've heard a lot of members with auto's going with 4.10's on their 99 and up GT's and they have completely streetable cars with decent mileage.
Hopefully next year i'll have 3.73's and a hiflow hpipe on my 96. Brett ------------------ 66 Tahoe Turquoise Coupe Laser Red 96GT Ragtop 30 Years & 30 inches apart in the driveway! |
My 01 Cobra has 3:27 gears from the factory. I had 3:73 gears installed. Made a huge difference in the 1/4 mile times and the 0-60 mph times, lost 1 mpg hwy and 0 mpg in city driving. All 01 Cobras are 5 speed.
