373s in a 5 speed will almost equal 4.10s in a auto.
so go 4.10!

i went 373 but i drive a ton on the highway and go from state to state.


but go 4.10!
4.10s for a manual... but if u drive a lot of 70mph+ highway forget it. Youll hate yourself. If youre not on it all that much.... then ever time you get on it youll rember that those gears are the best $500 youve ever spent :gringreen

4.10s for manual city/ occasional highway and for auto trans
3.73 for manual highway driver who wants a little more kick
I have 4.10's in my 1996 Mustang SVT Cobra Convertible, this car has a very heavily modded motor, 402rwhp and 418rwtq. N/A all motor. I get 21 mpg. highway and 21 mpg. city, and I can cruise at 70-mph. all day long. As long as you don't have, your right foot in it all the time you'll be fine with a 4.10 gear. It also helps to have, a real good tune in it also, Mike. SCT Tuner.:bigthumbsup
Everyone has diff opinions

I say if you do a lot of racing go 4.10. If not then go 3.73.

Sometimes I wish I went 4.10 lol, but i like my 3.73s
go 4.10....end thread!

nah but seriously i wish i would have gone with 4.10 instead of the 3.73.
everyone's opinions are different but from my experiences I would go 3.73. I know people who have had 4.10s in a 5speed and automatics and regret it when it comes to the highway, topping out way too quickly.

I have a 5speed with 3.73s and its just right.

My vote goes to 3.73s.
My advice would be to drive or ride with someone who has each ratio. Then decide which one you like better.

I wish I could, but work keeps me swamped. The last real Mustang event I went to was the Mustang's 40th anniversary here in Nashville, TN speedway.

Oh, and the time I took my car out right after I finished installing the blower. :D
