98 Cobra --should i put 4.10 gears or 4.30. Is there a huge diference. Whats a reasonable price for the install. Any help would be great.

What do you like to do?? Drag race only? do you commute alot? daily driver? Ive heard alot of people with 4.30's, and they seem to like them... also depends on whether youre going to stay NA...

I have heard nothing but good on the performance gains of 4.30's, for DRAG RACING. They are a good choice for both street/strip....but if your plan is daily freeway commuting....scratch the 4.30's for something more reasonable. Either way, the difference is slight, but it is there. Going from a stock ratio, to one of these will be an absolute wake up for the vehicle though....I can promise either way you will love it.

4.10's should be a factory option on Cobras if not standard equipment.

Don't get either of those gears, go with either the new Motive 3.90's, or FMS 3.73's. I have heard nothing but regrets from people with 4.10's.

I would agree with the 3.90's on a 5 liter, not all of course, but most. But the 4v 4.6l motors react very much differently then the 5 liters to a gear change. The higher gears are a slightly better choice for the cobra.
