3.73's minimum if you do alot of highway driving. 4.10's if you don't and 4.30's if you want the fastest 1/4 mile times.

With the 4.30's and the other modsI'd say high 13's maybe,with slicks and a stall definately.

I know someone putting 4.30's in his auto GT. I think that would be killer for track days and city driving, but highway cruises would be hell in my opinion.

4.10's great all around gear for the 2v mod motor.
4.30's good for the track
4.56's if you want to really run 1/8 mile
3.73's if your either scared of the gear or do ALOT of highspeed playing but I doubt that with it been a vert and an auto.


hey just think it's a free post and I actually put some TECH in my post

Alot of people will say 3.73 for manual and 4.10 for auto. it all depends on how/where you drive. I'd say 3.73 for everyday w/ highway 4.10 w/o highway

I have 4:10's in my 02 auto and I love them. It will make a big difference.

Auto.. no less than 4.10's. No matter how much highway you drive. 3.73's to 4.10's is only like a 200rpm difference cruising on the highway, and I am fine at 80mph around here.

You'll be dissapointed with 3.73's.

The only companys that I know of that make 3.90's are Pro50
and motive.The FRPP gears are made for are cars and they are
the gears I would put in my car.
I say FRPP 4.10's or Bust.

Check my sig, times are minus the jba's. DO NOT go less than 4:10's...PERIOD!Id say gears/tires would get u a 13.8-14.0's, add a mid pipe/cat back to get 13.6-13.8, 3K+ tq cnvtr to get 13.2-13.5, filter/tbody/plenum will help u run consistent low 13's. This can be done on a stock suspension from what Ive read and a bit of weight reduction wont hurt either. Hope this helps.
