Thanks for all the info. this site is the BEST.

Scott, I'll call you today to set up a time.
My C4 w/ 3.73's turns about 4000 at 75... i wouldn't think you'd have a problem with 4.10's and aod, but even if you do you could always get a taller tire like i did to make up for it a little...

I've got 373's in my car and it's a good all around gear. I thought about 390's also but when i called around there were 1. much more expensive or 2. weren't in stock and didnt know when they could get them in stock. HO that was over a year ago But i'd say 373
