I currently have the 2.73 rearend in my car, and obviously am not pleased. I am gonna do gears, I am just curious weather I should go 3.42, which I have available to buy right now(stock ten bolt out of a 6sp.), or if i should wait and find 3.73's installed in a stock ten bolt. I have very slight mods right now, and only intend to do the LT4 Heads/intake/hotcam conversion, with a 3200 vig stall, and possibly a small spray. Would love to get some opinions on what you guys would recommend I do. The 3.42 available is my friend's, 37000mi on it, $250.

I would go with 3.73 with an A4.
