![]() Anyone out there running this tranny? I have 4.10's with a stock T-5. I virtually have no first gear, and I tach about 2500 rpm at 73 mph. Do you think the higher gears would help out much?? Also when I run the quarter mile I have to shift into 5th gear, which costs me a few tenths.

![]() Lose the gears then. 4.10s are obviously too much if you need to shift to 5th. Dropping back to 3.73s seems to be the best option.

![]() Yeah, I was thinking about doing that but I'm building up another 351 with about 400 HP, so I might wait to put the gears in until I see how it runs with the new motor. My T-5 has had a long 15 years of abuse behind it so it's time to put a better one in anyway.

![]() With that kind of HP, 3.55s should be sufficient unless it will be hitting peak at like 7000rpms. 4.10s will be WAY too much gear for that kind of engine.
