well over a couple hundred passes with no sign of a failure (knock on wood). This is my second clutch and yes I do ride it out. I've managed a 1.79 60' on the street tires and a bunch of 1.8s. The car has 147k miles.

Mcleod has been in it for a few years.

right right. I will be putting it in my c5 and I said the 3.90's because its equivalent to the c5z transmission. ( c5z transmission geared much more aggressively than standard c5) but hey guess stepping up to a 4.10 wouldn't hurt. I just hear alot of ppl on here say the 3.90s are perfect for the c5. Most ppl prefer that than a 4.10 in a c5.

Love my 4.10's. These cars should have come like this from the factory, you don't lose much gas mileage with the 6 speed.

Thats cool. Gas mileage has been a concern with me as far as swapping gears. Glad some people say its not to much of a loss. Are you located in Windsor?

I lost 3mpg from stock to full bolt on, tune and 4.10s. Well worth the sacrifice though...

How far off is your speedo with the 4.10s? What all is involved in getting it calibrated?

Torquer 2 on the 112 lsa I'm guessing? Hmm... I may have to change my mind on cams... How is the drivability?

yeah, it's on a 112. Drive ability is ok but proper tuning is a must for this cam.
If you want a lopey cam, this is it. Top end pull is very good but it does lack torque. The gears made it a much more tolerable car to drive.

No other mods than gears between the two vids?

I'm glad you showed a second run after missing second and letting the Honda get ya

Very nice comparison, I hope to do the same later this season between 3.73's and my 4.70 spool Gonna go play with the 1/8th mile boys

Absolutely no other mods. That honda ran a 10.7 @ 141. I think I had him though...for maybe the first 5 feet. lol

So what is your rpm redline?

What gear did you cross the 1/4 in with the 3.42 vs. 4.10?

thanks
You top out with the 4.10s in the 1/4 vs just having to shift into 4th with the 3.42s

1/4 mile w/4.10s should be mid to top of 4th gear


There have been a few that have installed 4.10s with an A4 with good results
3600+ stall and tune are needed for sure! I would only do 3.73s maxx
