higher ratio=faster acceleration 
course, then you've gotta worry about traction...

Good lord, Gonzo, that's a nice truck (even if it is a Ford).

I think Gonzo is in a hurry, but if I had a truck like that I would drive in the rightlane and make them go around just to show off.

Nice SVT  If it came with 3.73's I would go for 4.30's personally. Don't forget the sped cal !
EDIT - sorry saw that you already got the 4.10's.....enjoy ! |

Aren't you woried with that light rear end you are going to have no end of traction problems?
I am just getting into mods on my Mustang. So far all I have done is install a Magnaflow catback but more goodies are in the works.
Here is a small mpg movie from a '99 GT with the same exhaust.

Blackcaraddit: SOTP???
rightlane: Hurry? Just want to be the first to the posted speed limit - he he
Mosca: One day you will see the light.....
Thanks, Pat....
STL: After 4:10's I think the next available is 4:56's, unless you get a custom grind, but don't quote me on that
Traction I don't think will be much of a problem - the L is a 4800 pound red brick. Also have a few other mods - 3 pound pulley, chip, 12" cone filter, single blade throttle body, Basanni exhaust from the heads back (Wicked sound!), shift kit in the tranny, traction bars. Dynos at 375 RWHP 471 RWTQ at 90 degrees F on street program running 92 octane - mild for a L in our club.

Won't even consider running a KB until I get a built bottom end and better heads, and better tranny, and .....
