i know this is asked alot and yes i have searched but i havent been able to find any solid info about exactly what i want. i have a 95 trans am with a tci built 700-r with reverse manual valve bodies and a 3000-3500 stall. other then some probs i had with tci the trans feels great and i love having to shift it, but my 2.73's kill it. my q is with street tires of maybe a set of dr's how bad will 4.10's be for traction? im not to worried about gas but i dont want to blaze my tires whenever im lanching off a light. so 3.73 or 4.10?

 

4.10's and drag radials and you'll be fine. Even good street tires aren't that bad. (see my sig). OK, granted you've got a stall converter, but still, DR's should make up for that.

 

thats what i like to hear! anyone else? also is there much of a diff as far as the "fun factor" goes?

 

The fun factor is with 4.10s its alot more fun to drive.

 

cool sounds like 4.10's for me then!

 

Don't forget that 4.10's usually produce more whine (depending on the gear manufacturer and who set them up), I had 4.10's and 4.11's and they were definitily the most fun, but very loud. The 3.73's might be a better way to go. Do you drive this daily or is it just a drag car?

 

I used to be in the same boat as you..
273's 2500stall cam that doesn't kick til 2500...
When I switched to 373's I was satisfied

 

one last q before i order the gears. will 4.10 be to high for a sprayed car? i plan on getting a small shot that i wont use out of the hole in the very near future. on that note if anyone has a used wet kit their looking to sell pm me please

 

anyone know or should i post this q in the n2o tech?

 

the n2o guys seem to think a 3.73 gear is better for the bottle how much will that effect my na performance vs the 4.10

 

I think you will be happier with 3.73.

any specific reason?

 

The 4.10/4.11 is just too much gear for a car that runs out of breath at <6,000rpm.
