I haven't wound my car out yet, and I was curious if anyone with 4.10's could tell me what the top speed is? Thanks.

Well, its going to depend on your redline.

Theoretically, with 4.10 gears, 27" tall tires and a max. RPM of 6,500...your top speed
in 4th gear (1:1 ratio) would be 127mph. At 55mph, this should roughly be 2,800 rpm...to verify.

In 5th gear, (.75:1 ratio) your theoretical top speed would be 169. HTH...

I have a 4.30 gear with 275/40/17 tires. In 5th the highest I have gotten it is 135mph. The rear end soundsl like it's about to come apart it's so loud, that I can hardly hear the exhaust over the scream of the gear/ rear end. I don't remember what rpm that is, but I think it was around 5900 rpms. I'm sure I could take it higher, but I don't wanna cause any unneeded damage.

My redline is set at 6800.

i used Judd's suggestion of http://f-body.org/gears
and found the M6 gear ratios here- http://www.sallee-chevrolet.com/Chev...ons/gmt56.html
with a stock sized tire (275/40/17 or 245/50/16) and a redline of 6800, I will top out at 171 in 5th gear (253 in 6th) with 4.10 gears
a stock redline should top out at 151 compared to 181 with 3.42's
