i would also like to know how our cars pull with gears up top... ive heard so many different things that im just confused at this point... some say it doesnt pull as hard as 3.27's and some say it pulls harder... people have said that with say 4.10's... it pulls hard to about 100 then it doesnt pull as hard as 3.27's?! would getting 3.73's help me out in both areas? or should i go with 3.90's? aaaaaah!

Ha! 4.10s definitely pull harder above a 100 mph than 3.27s. Unless I have some special magical 4.10s.

I have 3.55s, and after 140 it feels like it starts to pull a lot slower. I'm not sure at that speed if it is gears or aero that slows down the rate of acceleration.
