PM sent....Kris Keltner in Little Rock does them for a great price. The only thing you'd need would be a tune so your mileage is accurate. You PM him, his screen name is 02402RAMAIR.

4.10s are a good choice. I just put a set of 4.10s in my Vette and picked up 4 tenths and 2mph in the 1000 ft.

Should be around 1800-1900rpm @ 70mph, given a 25.5-26" tall tire and 6th gear. For a 6spd car the 4.10's are about ideal but 4.30's/4.56's etc...work really well depending on what you're trying to do with the car.

For me, 2000 rpm = 74 mph with 25.7" tires in 6th. Dropped e.t. by 3/10's in the 1/4.

With a M6..4.10's are the way to go..you rock off the line with them in there..

Shorter Track I would go to 4.30's, 4.65's..depends on the length of the Track, and what you want to do..
