what gears are better for a 96gt supercharged? im thinking of getting 4:10s or are 3:73 better for this application???

i would say 373s becuase you are gonna use a blower.. if you stay n/a then 410s.

with your setup go with the 373's for sure

355's i thought was better for supercharged appl.

But his type of car like the high RPM's. If it were a fox I'd suggest 355's.

Best thing to do is use a 1/4 mile calculator to figure it out that way you know exactly what your getting.
rpm calculator

it depends on what size tire you're gonna use. I've got 3.73 with a 28 in. tire with N20 and go through the traps at 5500 rpm. I'm thinking about going 3.90's. If you're using a 26 in. tire go with 3.73's.
