As of now, Im going with 3.73's on the 12 bolt Im building. No gas mileage reason or anything, just that Ive heard a lot of guys say they dont like where 4th is at top of the 1/4 on the 4.10/4.11 gears. I dont dd my car anymore, but still sticking with the 3.73's.

4.11 feels more normal to drive than 3.73 on the m6...the 3.42 was way too tall.this is to me of course, i have done 4.11 on the 5 speed and 6 speed, honestly i don't see why m6's didn't come with 4.11 from the factory.
