Default Reccomendations PLEASE!!!

Guys, I currently have 4.10's in my truck now, tryin to get the truck to a 7.1x, went 7.40@90 this past weekend in the heat, so what gear do you guys think will work the best? 4.30's or 4.56's? I know that the 4.30's wont be much difference but it I think it'd be a better street gear

1/8 mile only I'd put as much as you can stand. How's your 60ft with those raggedy traction bars?

hes spraying lol 200 shot at that ( i think ) so its pretty much the same as he would be running in the winter .


from trevor's post i would get the tune dialed in then see where youre at..you sound like youre wanting 4:56 gears, if thats true go for it..
