I am running 2.73 ,what do you want to know?
All I can say is in the 1/8th mile it pulls fantastic as I have gone over 100mph even with a little 2800 stall.
The last 400ft or so performance drops off some.
On the highway the car will pull just about anything from 75-105mph roll because you are in 2nd gear with a 4.42 final drive ratio and not much out there can beat a blown motor in it's sweet spot with 4.42 gearing at that speed.
Above 105mph when you shift into 3rd and go to 2.73 final gearing, pull drops off quite a bit.
The other nice thing is 2.73 are the strongest gear sets you can run in the 10bolt and have a huge amount of tooth contact and are unlikely to break.
