4:10's in my 84 l69? Good or bad idea??

I want 4:10's cause i just want my car to be explosive at takeoff rather than 1/4 mile times .........Im really just looking to have fun with her/ hell i only drive it once a week... :D

if you don't mind the gas mileage go for it...

even with 3.73s it gets annoying because it revs too high for me on the highway...but take off is great :)

i have a 84 L69 with an auto

Can u own one of these cars and even complain about gas???? "I dont get it" :confused: ;) :bow:

yea, you can complain...its called being a 17 years old with no job :D ...i got a job now, so i guess i can't complain, all i can say now is MORE POWER!

heck if you want explosion off line why not go to a 456 or 488 gear?????

Wouldnt my car run out of breath at around 75mph???
Id like to keep it near 120mph as a top speed

4.10s with a .7ish overdrive will cruise at about 3,000 RPM @ 80 mph. A bit high for long distance driving, but fine for short highway trips IMO.

I say go for it...I'll be adding 4.10's to mine this spring, as soon as I can afford to have the rear built.
