Re: Which gear ratio?
3.73, good for road and freeway. anything higher then 373 i hear will keep your car more accelerated and can over heat your car more in the highway. so i would say 373.

Most people go with 3:73's for a 5 speed and 4:10's for AOD's I don't recommend 4:10's if you have a C-4 and drive it on the street....like I do.
