Re: What's Next Is.....
biggest difference between the 2 trannys with 4.10's in the rear is that 2nd, 3rd, and 5th, will pull slightly harder in the 6 speed.
But on a road course, I wonder if the 6 speed would put you in the sweet spot on the tach or would it be to low and put you in the next higher gear

Re: What's Next Is.....
The only reason I was going to swap to a T-56 was for the .83 5th gear so I can pull straightaways a little better, otherwise the T-45 or T-5 is just fine. At 85mph I'm right about 3200rpm and I can pull 4th gear to well over 100mph and have reached 135mph in 5th. Can Mustangs go faster than 140mph, yes but they get unstable quick and it has nothing to do with suspension. With the stock wing on you probably won't get much past 145mph anyway. If you really, really, really want a manual I suggest throwing in a five-speed.

Re: What's Next Is.....
Lee those ratios confirm what i want out of my car. The final drive in 6th will be about the same as my 3.55's now. But on the track i can get out of the hole a little quicker, as long as i can get the power to the ground. Thanks for all the input guys.

Re: What's Next Is.....
I can happily say Joseph is right, i get 25mpg with 4.10's
I wouldnt swap to a t-56. I dont think the benefits outweight the cost since you are already running a 3650, as others have pointed out already
