Idk that's where my rpms were at when I was on the highway.if I woulda dropped it down into third at 60 my rpms would of been high.so I figured that was a good reference point for someone to have an idea of what gears I had.I'm wanting to order 410s

Dear lord. You do know that you have another gear don't you? I didn't even think about going to 3rd. I really suggest going ahead and running in overdrive (5th) at 60+. It saves so much fuel and it's so much quieter.

Anyways! 4.10s are awesome! I love mine and honestly kinda wish I had gotten 4.30s. I drive a Procharged Mach with 3.73 and it really didn't jump off the line on hard launches like my little 2v does; plus that centri squeal pissed me off. I'm definitely considering 4.30 or 4.56 when I get a 4v; it's what those motors want to run.

Yes,i wouldn't mind going with 4.30 or 4.56.how big of a difference from the 4.10 gears??and what about gas??is it going to totally kill my mpg.its still my daily driver.
