Default Help on chosing my 9" please. 4.30's vs. 4.11's in my M6

I'm thinking about going ahead and ordering a 9". I have a 2000 M6 SS and I was wondering about where the best and cheapest place to get a 9" would be and what gears? I have 4.11's in my 10 bolt and it wraps pretty high in 4th going across the line. I was wondering if I could go with 4.30's and still not have to go in 5th. My rev limiter is set at 6500. Any one have personal experiences that they could help with. Thanks

the Midwest Chassis & Performance fabricated 9 inch rearend is by far the best deal out there for a 9 inch bolt-in rearend. this is the most true bolt-in rearend assy you can buy. all gear ratios available. these rearends are custom built to your specs and include several features that others charge for, and some that aren't even available. feel free to call me to discuss your gear and other applications. check it out in the Midwest Chassis threads here or at my site www.midwestchassis.com

2000 M6 4.56 Gear MWC 9" I run a 28" tire though and trap at 68XX. On the highway (stock rims & tires) I can cruise 70-75 @ 2100-2300 RPM and get 20+ MPG highway.

When you purchase a Moser rearend, it is shipped out just two days after the order is received! Bob

if your not planning on making more power for a little while go with 4.30's and a 27-28" tire for the track

i love my 4.30's and hate that i have to take them out for the nitrous

I actually have a HSW dry kit that will be going on. So it will be getting sprayed on top of what I have
