That's pretty weird Shoulda went with 4.10s because AODs suck Only reason I haven't put gears in my droptop is because I like revving 2000rpms at 85mph Posts: 1379 | From: 510 East Bay | Registered: Aug 2002  |  : Cstang5.0 ¯ Member # 4925 posted                              If you end up converting to a 5 speed you will notice a nice deference I have almost the same thing you are running right know but mine is a 5 speed now. the biggest problem I have is getting the car to hook good luck -------------------- 88 VERT slow sold 89 coupe stock ; ) 02 yukon 05 focus Posts: 1638 | Registered: Oct 2004  |  : hidnn.o.s. ¯ Member # 1219 posted                           You went the right way with 373's. I have 410's in my 93 AOD and i'd rather have the 373's in a heartbeat. I got these from a friend set up in the rear end already for a killer price, otherwise I would have gone with your gears in a second. I have had two AOD cars, one with the 373's and this one with the 410's. 373's are a better setup i.m.o. I am going to have problems at the track taching out now at 103mph right about at 6k RPM's -------------------- R.I.P. Willie G.

Goodluck -------------------- R.I.P. Willie G.

Now that i've driven it around a lot i can tell that theres more torque. -------------------- ./_ _ _ ___ __\ (]]]_ _ o _ _[[[) |\_o_ __ __o_/| |__|..........|__| 68 Fastback 84 CJ7 94 HMMWV 95 GT 03 F350 17 Fusion Hybrid Posts: 17580 | From: 530 | Registered: Jun 2002  |  :
