[QUOTE="4wheelslide, post: 814907, member: 14063"] I have a 95 GT with an M code axle, I am going to upgrade this week. It is a 5 speed car, mostly around town cruiser, the longest ride I have taken in it was to Livermore from San Jose, and I doubt if I'd go much farther than Monterey. I want it to launch hard. At this point with the 2.73's it will fry tires quickly out of first and into second, I want to reduce the loss of traction and gain a more torquey launch. I read on american muscle website that the 4.10 is the one to run, and I can get new FRPP 4.10's w/install kit cheap. Others tell me 3.73's would be better, but I don't know, myself. Could anyone here tell me what would make this thing take off strong and not just spin em? I have great tires, and good suspension, It just burns em off, I am sure from the tall gears. Thank you in advance! I also could use advice on a speed-cal device? or whatever it will take to correct the speedo? Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
