um, 4.10 gears the 1/4 mile times by about 2 tenths mabye a lil more, and i would rather be able to have a faster 1/4 mile time at the track than say that i beat up to 158. I have personally been in a transam that had 4.10's and 4th gear toped out at 110, and 5 th gear still had alot of pull left in it. So basically 4.10 would probaly top out at around 140. I will agree that 4.10's defantely take away from highway racin but that is only if you start from 80. If i race on highway from a 50 roll i would still have my full power band untill about a 105 which is plenty of time to see who is gonna win the race. And from a stop, lets just say that 4.10 easily put my 5.3 second 0-60 to well under 5 seconds.
Integritry- I agree wit ya, this weather fuggin sucks.

To give you an idea of their true effect here is what they do to 99+ Mustangs: hiway speed in a stock Mustang at 70 MPH you will be at about 2200 rpm. With 4,10's you will hit 2200 rpm at about 60/65mph. I haven't seen numbers or tests but I'm assuming that's approx 20 mph off your top end? Personaly I'd never race someone at that speed without rollbars and 5 point harnesses.
