Well the top speed will be different depending on what your revving your car to. Like if you have an aftermarket cam and valvetrain setup, then you might be revving on out to 6600-6800 rpms, which will bump the top speed on up some.

If I remember correctly, I believe that a car with stock redline and 4.10s has a top speed of around 112 in 4th, vs the 130ish with the 3.42s. I am sure someone that has this setup will chime in though.

most w/ 4.10's and boltons only will cross the traps @ around 110 i typically see. so chances and thats a little under the Redline as well... now w/heads and cam and raised limiter to i believe 6500-6750 4th will end @ 120-125ish there is a calculator somewhere unsure of its accuracy but you might want to look into it...

I've never been able to run a full bolton LS1 6-speed down the 1/4 mile but i did run my camaro when it was a lid/catback car on All Season H and T-rated tires. (130mph) cut a 2.0 60ft time and ran a 12.98@105.9

4.10's shifting at 6500, 4th ends at 121 according to the calculator. Was right on the dot for me when I tried on the highway.

4.10's here btw, I love them. Stock 10 bolt. Mine like to whine excessively though, but hasnt broke yet!

I had my old car tuned when it had 3.90's in it. Top speed in 4th was 133 @6,700 rpms on 26" et streets. I broke the 3.90's and went to 4.10's and currently have 4.10's in the firehawk. Once the h/c are done and I ever spray it I'll prob go back to the 3.90's and a 28" tire.

I think that you will like the 4.10's. I was impressed how it made my car feel. It was more of a difference than I am use to from 5.89's to 6.17's in my old rockcrawlers.

3.73s here in my stock 10 bolt. The car is just a show car/street car/twice a year drag car, lol. Probably will go with 4.30s when I get my 12 bolt or 9 inch.

I'm worried about breaking more 7.5" 4.10's in my stock 10-bolt, so I went with the slightly thicker 3.73. That is, until I get a 9", at which point I'll probably go back to 4.10

4.56 here. I've run as fast as 118 mph, the M&H tires are just under 27" and I had to spin to 6700rpm to get there in 4th gear. If I add heads to the car, I'll need to drop back down to 4.30 or 4.10.

I had 4.10s in my 12-bolt before the 4.56s. For a street car that doesn't go to the track, I would've stuck with the 4.10s. WOT shifts with a 4.56 gear come fast on the street!
