3.55's or 3.73's?
 
I want to put gears on & was thinking about 3.55's or 3.73's. do you guys know how fast 3.55's will go vs the 3.73's.
the car is going to get some NOS within the next 2 years, then a incon twin turbo in 5 years (i hope)
so what gears do you think are best for a twin turbo, nitrous guzzlin stang?
thanks

Well I would go with the 3:73's right now and in five years or so when you unleash all that turbo power think about swapping to the 3:55's or keeping the 3:73's, at that point you will need aftermarket stronger 31 splined axles and a new carrier to harness all that power. There arer a lot of blower cars running 3:55's and run 10's.

Go with the 3.73 and use a 28x9 inch tire; the combo will support tens......
