which is better on a 04 GT, 5spd?

Posted by 92stangLX (Member # 3252) on :

I really like the 373's I had on my '01 GT

Posted by RobertTS (Member # 1022) on :

Daily driven car 3.73s all the way, if not 4.10s,,
4.30s are way too much for a Gt i think,,Cobras like it better since you can rev the car higher.,.

4.10's are good for a 2V 4.6

i had 3.73's on my 00gt and i really like them but then i regret not going for 4.10's, so 4.10's all the way. [patriot]

how much of a difference is seen with the 3.73 than the stock 3.27s? i know 4.10s would be a whole lot different but im going more towards the 3.73

Posted by losbadgts (Member # 4394) on :

not a huge difference from your stock gears to 3.73's. if u are going to stay n/a go with 4.10's but if in the future u spray/turbo/charged your car then go with the 3.73's.

sounds like you're talking to people that do not have 4.10's on a 2v...

Posted by Curt (Member # 6254) on :

4.6 2v has no torque, so lower gears really help

Posted by Vm04GT (Member # 6857) on :

ok. NO TORQUE? it has 302lbs of torque buddy stock.

yea but u only see that torque on high rpm's so the way i see it is the faster u get to those high rpms the better, but it seems that u set your mind on 3.73's so just put them on your car and have fun with them.

4.10's

Posted by BlowN67 (Member # 4229) on :

4.10's 2v's an 4.30's for the 4v's

I love my 4.10's. The RPM's are up there on the highway but it never sees that anyway.
