I got a 2000 Auto v6

With 3.73's what is the Estimated RPMS...
at 45 MPH
at 70 MPH (or typical freeway speed)

With 4.10's what is the Estimated RPMS...
at 45 MPH
at 70 MPH (or typical freeway speed)

in an Auto with 3.73's or 4.10's is the car going to be able to keep up with the shifting as the rpms will max faster? I dont wanna redline and blow it.

I don't know the information that you asked for. :shrug: . But your car won't blow up. Mustangs aren't that wimpy. Maybe with a 200 shot of Nitrous on stock internals, but not with just gears. From what i heard too, which i'm sure you have too, 4.10's is the only way to go with an automatic.
 
Here's the stock gear ratio's to help you out some.

Gear ratios------V6 Manual----V6/GT Automatic------GT Manual
1st--------------3.35:1-----------2.84:1------------3.37:1
2nd--------------1.99:1----------1.55:1------------1.99:1
3rd--------------1.33:1-----------1.00:1------------1.33:1
4th--------------1.00:1-----------0.70:1------------1.00:1
5th -------------0.68:1------------none--------------0.67:1
Reverse----------3.15:1-----------2.32.1-------------3.22:1
