Default Re: rear gear ratio

During my 302 days I used a 3.73 gear set in my Mustang from lightly modded all the way up to heavily modified, and thought it did a great job overall. It's the middle ground between track and street. Once I built my supercharged 377 stroker though, I dropped down to a 3.55 because it makes so much more torque and the 3.55's are more suited to my powerband.
