To be honest, I dont understand the difference between a 3.73 and 4.10. I have a 95 v6 manual mustang and i want to add one of the two since everyone talks about them. If someone can tell me the difference between the two and wheather either will reduce my top speed and stuff, i would appreaciate it.

THANKS

V6?? either gear is good.. the 3.73s is the most common with a 5 spd. it will feel like a new engine in there.. the way it takes off!! and yes, your top end will drop!! but getting there will be twice as fun..

Just me...............................

Yes, acceleration is quicker. Yes, top end is decreased slightly. Yes, you will enjoy the new mod. No you will not lose mpg (some actually gain 1-2 per gallon).

Hope that helps.

I don't mean to doubt anyone here, but i'm just making sure. You're sure that a new set of gears won't drop mpg? Because I'm thinking of getting a new set too. Which set is better if you have a supercharger or turbocharger?

If you supercharge, even 3.73 is too much. I would look into an 8.8 with maybe 3.45 and a good limited-slip for a supercharger.
