Hey John.....
Can't believe with the pipes you have on that car that you'd will hear much resonance from any gear set.
I don't remember if you've said you drive mostly around town or highway, but around town, lower (higher number) is more "fun" just that traction can become scarce...you know it has for me. My 4:10 upgrade (mines a 6-spd.) was one of the best mods I made!
Good luck with your changes and I'll see you around the "man-cave" soon. My cars there now.

Does anyone have a quick and dirty calculation I could use to figure out the rear end gear ratio/engine rpm's with cruising speed. I see most say 3.73's are around 2400-2500 rpm's at 70. I would like to be able to calculate this for 3.90's and 4.10s. Thanks

Oh well more time to do research...Onward and upward.
