Default 373 or 410?? Stroke 396 A4 3k stall??

I know my stall is small for my motor and will change it out to a 3500 or 4k stall eventually. It not a DD car mostly for racing and car meets. Im more leaning on picking up 410 cause my LOW END sucks. What do you guys think would be the best setup?? This is a 94 LT1.

That's weird cause I've got some 4:10's on the way, being similar cars, I'd say go for it if it's a track car. Mines a semi DD and I'm still goin with 4:10's. From what I know you're gonna have a fun ride with them.

I do drive it on the street weekends but I notice's when I race, my low end sucks ***, im be at like 100mph and my RPM at like 2100 or 2200 rpm. My main question is, is it gonna hurt my A4 3 stall with 10 bolt?? or be safe with 373??

Well I'm no expert on this, but being an A4 the 10 bolt will hold up pretty compared to an M6. Now if you have a 2 series like me, the ring gear will be thicker than a 3 series carrier.
I've been trying to figure out if that will affect the gear strength. So far no dice.
Your Transmission will be fine, A4 cars with 373's are perfectly safe but you never know, it also depends on how good your suspension is too.
Why are you at 2100 at 100 on the strip? Why not WOT?
