373s or 410s
M6, You will have the same mileage... get the 4.10's, you will love them!! When daily driving, i was averaging around 16-18 driving the car hard and 18-20 taking it easy... personally i think thats damn good.I was able to do around 100Mph @ under 3K rpms...So 75mph is under 2k... not bad at all.
Trust me you will kick yourself if you get the 3.73. I would only tell someone to get 3.73's over 4.10's if they were auto.
But I agree. 4.10s are perfect. 3.73 is hardly enough of a jump from 3.42 to warrant the expense.
3.42 to 3.73 is a waste of money. There is no considerable notice in performance. You will feel like someone just stole your wallet on payday. Go with the 4.10 ratio with a 6 speed.

I have 3.73's and I definitely felt a difference. It woke the car up a lot! I think it's a great "all around" gear for the street, especially a daily driver. Plus 3.73's are stronger. Mine isn't a DD, so I'm thinking about going to 4.10's. Whichever gear the OP chooses, he'll benefit. One gear is not better than the other in every situation; it's all about what you're going to use the car for and personal preference.
How is 6th gear almost unusable with 3.42's? When I had 3.42's I used 6th as low as 45mph. And gas mileage stays about the same for city, but definitely drops for highway.

I have 241s or something like that, I just finished a stick swap and just want some decent gears, I was thinking of 410s, but I would be breaking the rear end, and I cant have that, I got the stock 10 bolt, Plus I have been talking to a shop that just specializes in trans am and cameros, They say I will definitely need another rear end, and they said with 410s the rpms would be at about 2400-2600rpms @75mph, so I just went with some yukon 373s
