The first time I drove my stang after puting those into it I giggled like a school girl the whole time... I actually had to pull over and stop for a second because I was laughing so hard it wasnt safe for me to drive....Originally posted by Mad$ella

there is nothing quite like putting higher gears in. I had 4.11s in my old Nova for awhile, holy shit, even with the same motor the pick-up was WAYYY better. plus I could bust out donuts on pavement no problem, without neutral dropping it (when I had the auto) or popping the clutch (when I had a standard in it). unfortunately, I didn't have an OD transmission at any time so it really hurt my mileage even more then the 4 barrel did..

I've had 3:55's and 4:11's. I really like the 3:55's. 160km/h at 3000rpm.
You'll love them.
I also recommend you get a short shifter like Pro 5.0. I reeeeally love mine.

when cut open, the rambutan unfortunately fails miserably to deviate from its outwardly testicular appearance, revealing an inside that looks for all the world exactly how you'd expect the contents of a scrotum to look.

FKA no|uno
The difference with the gears will be huge. If you have an auto, it will be even more significant. I had an AOD stang (which eventually got a C4) and it was basically stock. It would spin the tires a bit in first but after putting in the 4.10's, it would spin through first, second and third. Night and day difference!
BTW, mustang gearing can be 2.73 which is most common, some 5spds came with 3.08 and you could get some autos with 3.27.
