Changing the final drive ratio doesn't change the optimal shift points though.

Ah, but the time it takes the shift to take place does need to be changed as the acceleration through the gears are quicker. Maybe Don or Wes will chime in here.

Gotcha, I won't argue against that. I was thinking you meant actually changing the shift points.

Most people change that too as usually an intake swap is not far before or after a gear swap.

Is there a speedo gear that matches up to are cars with 3.73's?? I thought 3.55's was the highest you could go without the speedcal or something. Been waiting about 5 years now to get the gears I just want my speedometer to be exact.

No there isn't. The 23 tooth Chrysler gear is close but they tend to get chewed up fast. Some people have varying success.

I used a Brother's Speed Cal with my 4.10s and did it electronically. It was around 90 bucks.

I think Adam has some good things to say here

I went with the 23 tooth driven gear with no probs
however
My 95 is a weekend toy so I drive it rarely

I've put just a bit over 10K on that 23 tooth gear since I made the swap

At the time I did my 373's ... the Speed Cal was not around

I do see about 1 to 2 mph faster readings around town
and
On the highway 3 to 4 mph faster readings depending upon the speed

I'll most likely go with a Speed Cal when I move up to 410's
