What gear ratio should i go with??
Im about to buy gears for my car but dont know what type of gear should i go with. I was looking at a thread and realize i need gears too lol..Its either 390s or 410s. I want my car to rev really quick to take off but still have good topend as well. HELP PLEASE!!

With your setup, without a doubt the 4:10's will be the best application. Contrary to popular belief you don't "lose top end" with the 4:10's on 6 speed cars, especially with a cam and high redline.
BTW, this doesn't belong in the internal engine section. I'll move it for you.

but i agree, 4.10s are what i have and the car pulls hard all around and when i shift at 6000rpm i only drop to 5000rpm, never out of the power band
only downside is you can only really safely go 120-125 in 4th gear at the track, but either way thats a high 10/ low 11 second pass

Thanks Damian, Im going to go with 410s!! Yeah my car revs all the way to 7000 but it seems like it revs up to slow for me and stays in 3rd forever..lol So i really wanted 410s but love that cars topend so i didnt want to take from it. Thanks everybody.
