I have 4.30's in my 9". At 75 MPH in 6th I am at 2150 RPM with 295/35/18's in the rear.

I am putting some PRC stg 1.5 heads and a 230/232 cam in with a fast 90/90 in next week I'll keep you posted. I will have to see if I need a taller tire at the track or not. I am hopeing that I can keep my 26" tall tire and not have to go to 28".

so what about 4.56 in 6th gear... RPM's??? does it make the top 3 gears much more usable.... i have a pretty huge cam and i am looking to wake up my mid range which is really flat.... before i go with my 9" want to decide on some gears... 4.30 or 4.56's.

Are you an A4 or M6?...Look at posts #3 and #4 man. Doesnt sound like trailer RPMs to me as long as you are M6. If you are A4...4.10s will bring you closer to 2800-3000 at 70, so i could see 4.30s or 4.56s being trailer for an auto.
