lets just say i switched to 3.73s and i could tell a nice difference... guys with 4.10 will tell you its like night and day....and a guy with a white gt that might have been featured in MM&FF will tell you 4.30s are for the win.

4.30? are building a track only car?

With 4.10's I have more use for 2nd gear now, first is good up to 30 MPH only. At highway speeds, it won't feel right.

Anyway, to your question...

Hell yeah you will feel the difference!

But again, why would you want 4.30? I hope you have some poweradder on that motor other than just bolt-ons...

4.30s are a great. I run 4.10s and would go 4.30s if the price was right. Just remember back in the muscle car hay day 4.10s where every where and non of the cars had over drive.

'what should I do to my car to get it ready for a supercharger, and how much boost can I run, and how much HP will that add?'
