Im in the same situation. I want a blower soon too, but I dont know when I will actually be able to afford one. I also want to get some 4:10's right now, but I think they might be overkill when I get a blower. The 3:55's I have are ok, but i know the 4:10's would be nice on the Mach.And 373's would be a waste of money 4 me.
Honestly my suggestion is save the money for the blower, drive the car a month or so after that...then you'll know if you need more gear or not by how it feels and your personal driving style.
This subject has been beaten to death.
With 410's you might run out of gear at the track.
You gotta shift into 5th at around 113- 115 with 410's, and by then you're out of the power band.
That's cutting it pretty close if you're putting out decent power.
I have 373's and with a good 60' time I can trap higher than 115, so I say go with 373's when force fed.
I ran consistant 1.9 60ft times, and I could only manage to trap 113. I have 3.73's and it's a 5 speed. Granted, this was on street tires, and a pretty nasty slipping clutch. Maybe I spun going into second pretty bad too.
As far as this topic goes, its all the same.
Auto, roots/twin screw 4.10
Auto, centri 4.10+
Manual roots/twin screw 3.73
Manual centri 4.10
A lot of this depends on what tires you're running at the track. If you're running tall tires, it can mess up you gearing. You basically don't want to have to shift to 5th. Traction also has to do with where you'l be in your rpm band.
