I need to replace my 3.91s because they are howlers and want to change the ratio while I am at it.
What I am looking to do is knock off a tenth or two from my ET in the 1/8 mile without driving myself crazy on the 30 mile freeway drive to the track.
Driving it to the track is pretty much the only time it is on the freeway. Other than that, I cruise around town where the speed limits are anywhere from 25-55 mph.
My current best 60 foot is 1.70 and current best ET is 7.86 in the 1/8. Combo is in my signature.
4.30s are kind of an oddball, hard to find ratio these days, that's why I'm considering going up to a 4.56. I don't know if 4.10s will be that different than a 3.91.
Right now it has 27" tall D.O.T. slicks, when these wear out I'll probably go to 28" or 29" tall non-D.O.T. slicks to increase my footprint a little.
The way things are going in SoCal, I don't think this car will ever go down a 1/4 mile track.
Here's a gear ratio chart I found:

Thanks for any opinions to get my off the fence and order something!
