You won't be able to notice a fuel economy difference between the two. I have 3.73's since 3.90's weren't out yet, but if I had to do it all over again, I'd get 4.10's.

I like the quality of the Ford Racing Performance Parts..FRPP dont make a 3.90 for an 8.8....So I think you should go with 3.73's

4.10's, I only lost a mile to the gallon. I beat Penninsula302 off the line with his 3.73's [burnout] but he owns me from that point on [worship] [worship]
