For an m6 is it best to go w/ 4.10's or 3.73's??

How will it be on the hwy, etc?

Thanks,

Oliver

 

4:10's

 

3.73's make sure there gm motive gears.

 

for ur car .. 4.10s .. if u didnt have a hotcam i'd say 3.73s

i LOVE my 4.10s .. i do not regret them whatsoever over my old 3.73s .. and i hated my 3.42s

 

Depends on what your looking for. Personally Iwas thinking 3.73, but 4.10 are looking tempting. It's a good thing we have 6th gear for the freeway. Although I will decide after actually driving a car (6spd) with both types of gears.

 

Based on my reading the consensus seems to be the following.

4.10's for M6 NA.
3.73's for forced induction M6.

3.73's for Auto NA
3.42's for forced induction A4

Of course Perry has 4.10's on his blown 383 Auto. Man he doesn't get traction until he hammers it into FOURTH. LOL

 

what kind of rpm would i be @ say @ like 100-120km/h in 6th gear?

 

around 2000

 

wow that aint bad @ all

 

or you can be like me and have a 3 spd auto and run 3200 at 100 km/h!! lol with the 4.10's

 

Or like me & go 160kms/h at 1700rpm I'll tell ya, its nightmare in the city with 2.73's

 

All I can say is bye bye rear end. Getting steeper gears multiplies the torque of your motor...at your power level + a little traction = a couple teeth trying to shoot through your rear-end cover.
