who is running 4.10s with over 600rwhp

[662rwtq]

just like the title says im thinking about doing a gear swap and i am wondering who is running 4.10s with power over 600rwhp. what do you tac through a 6 speed in the quarter mile going through the traps and what gear are you in. Im bassically trying to find out if a 4.10 is to steep for my power level.

 

[DOHCfan98]

im not a terminator owner, but im gonna go ahead and say that it might be too much gear. Is yours a DD or mostly a drag car? Have you thought about 3.73s?

 

[shftn6]

i have 4.10s and 470 horse and top out 4th gear at 125 in the quarter.

 

[utfan98]

run 3.73 or 3.90 4.10 is too much

 

[snakecharmer]

I'm not now, but I have had that gear with 600+. Way too much gear for most combinations on a street car.

oh 4.88's is where its it... then spray it a tad

 

[FromGTtoSVT]

with that much power..and that tall of a gear you will be rendering 1st and 2nd all but useless on the street lol

i'm going to be putting a 3.27 gear in mine in a couple weeks......i think a bigger gear like a 4.10 is counter-intuitive in a car with 600+rwhp/tq

If you are running higher than 125 in the quarter, don't get 4.10s. I have 4.10s with 570 whp and a T-56 and it gets close to having to shift into 5th before the traps, and that's with the SN95 6800rpm redline.

I think I'm going to drop down to 3.73's soon, for the track and for the street. I'd like to be able to go over 130 without shifting into 5th.

 

[tjs98gt]

yeah im running 3.55s right now but when i switch back to a solid axle id like to run 3.73s. 4.10s would def be too much with the power level i have now.


(1/4 mile times in sig are quite outdated and from when i was running less boost)

4.10's with a 600+ hp termi is useless...1st gear even on slicks will be non existant..

Not true. If you run 4.10's and a 28" tire, it's a perfect combo for the 600 hp range. I run my M+H DR's on the street and they spin in first, but it still moves out, and full on hooks in 2nd. When I had the KB and 608 to the tires is when I ran my best times. My friend has almost identical power in his cobra, and he has 3.73's. I work him all the time! haha

I agree. 4.10's with a tall slick wont be that bad, but on a 26" or shorter setup it wont work as well.

Personally, I wouldn't recommend a 4.10 gear with 600rwhp...unless you're running a 28" slick or a taller tire. I've been running a 3.90 gear for a few years now and it's too much IMO on the street.

ha, I was just thinking about this yesterday....subscribing.

Ok so with 670 rwhp and a 4.10 gear with a 28 slick on it what do you think i woujld be taching going through the traps

Kinda off subject but with 4:10s and a T56 what is the RPM's at highway speed (70mph) in 6th gear?

yeap...

my car last year..

4.10s...28" tire....605rwhp (nitrous) through the auto...trapped 137-140 and my rpms were 6700-6800.

depends on the cars weight, driver, traction. too many variables.

on the low end I would say 130-132.....on the high end 140-144

use the graph above to calculate it





and I still have that friggin bumper.....Im terirble
