I'm running a 3.89, but I have a TH400.

I did however have a T56, and thats why I put the 3.89 is in there. I will most likely be switching to a lower gear soon.

Trust how does your car run with the 3.23's? I would think it would help traction quite a bit on the street. I have a fabbed 9inch with 3.25's thats going in my car.

3.50's.. it doesn't give me as good track times as 4.10's would but I still manage an 11.64 on street trim and the car is quite fun out on the street.

I'm going with a 3.42 on a 408 F1a, M6. Figured it will make it more useable/fun out on the street.

Honestly, not sure yet. I've only ran it once at the track, total of 2 passes, and my injectors are WAY maxed out. Before I knew, traction was still pretty worthless on the street, and the car ran 11.06 at 103 on the brakes pretty hard at the track, but not hard enough I guess. Full weight, A/C, 1/2 tank, no weight reduction.

My new injectors etc. are in and with any luck I will make a track appearance on the 20th.
