Question 4.10 ?????

bought 4.10 for the stock rear and I want to know...Will I have more,same,or less pull from a roll. For example I love the feel my car pulls in 2nd around 50mph up to 75mph. And even 3rd pulls hard! If i get 4.10's how will my car pull? I know that I will go through the gears quicker and if i had slicks they would help me get out of the hole and all that....but i don't plan on getting slicks anytime soon. So long story short from a roll on the street how will 4.10's compare. anyone chim in I want to hear all points of view!!

hmmm, its tough to explain exactly. All the gears pull WAY harder. 20% harder if you want a number. Second gear pulls almost as hard as first used to. Third feels like the old second, etc. The problem is that you run out of gear quicker. It used to feel like my *** got shot out of a cannon when id drop into second from 55 or 60 MPH. Now with the 4.10s I cant hit second, i have to hit third. Its tough to say which gears pull harder at 60MPH or at 80 MPH, etc. It probably evens out in the end. The real magic is that you hit your power band very quickly. And you stay there. This is why you drop time in the 1320.
