Put a converter on & a blower and your car will feel much better. There is a guy online, Spence(Vicki's car) that has a 96 GT auto that runs 11.70s @ over 116 mph with bolt-ons, SVO heads & a Vortech. I think the 4.10s are hurting you because the car probably shifts into O/D before the line. 3.73s with a good loose converter would be a much better combo. Save for ported 99 GT heads & a blower and that car will fly. I have no complaints about my 99 GT auto except if I stamp it to the floor from a 20 mph roll, I spin for 2 gears with 285/40 Nittos in the rear.
