Yeah but don't go higher than 3.42's. The gears have to match the engine. What mods are you planning down the road?

with full exhaust and 3.73 i gained .8 tenths of a sec. I I had slicks it would be a full second gain.
If you plan on modifing the motor I would say 3.73's. I think these gears a great:lala:

I also opted for the 3.42's for my 92 RS 305 TBI, made my car feel like a totally different car, much better than the stock 2.73's.
