Anybody have a centri S/C and 4.10's?

[spederman]

Ok, i got lucky and get a chance with a do over for my gears for free. Long story short, Got 2 sets of Motive 3.90's installed and they both whined. Now i get a redo for free and can pick anything i want.

SO... my future plans include a Centri supercharger (either vortech or procharger), but that will probably be between 6-12 months away. I was thinking going 4.10's so i have the fun factor now, but i dont want to be screwed with NO traction once i get my S/C. I want usable power, not just looking cool by being able to spin my tires through the first 3 gears while getting my ass owned by some POS ricer.

Does anybody have 4.10's with a centri S/C and how do you feel about it? Do you love it or wish you had 3.73's?

i have 3.90's with a novi 2k. on street tires i will just MELT the tires in 1st and 2nd. i will be dropping back to 3.73's. a lot of people like the 4.10's but if you are planning on a s/c you will need some slicks. the 4.10 will be faster in the quarter but will suck a$$ on the street!

+1 for 3.73s....they even work well in a N/A stang.

Yes They do!

But I might be having to go with a steeper gear after my cams

how about get the blower and some BIG cams with the steeper gears? that might even it out a little bit, you think?

Im planning on a Novi 2K by years end, and I dont plan on changing out my 4.10s until i build up the rear end (and even then I dont know that I'll change them out). I think if driven properly at the track, you can pull off 4.10s with a centri, just gotta watch that Tach a bit more than you would with 3.73s.

Tractions a bitch w/o a blower, even for guys with 3.73s. Get some DR's and learn to launch with them.

I agree....4.10s hands down for cammed N/A 2Vs and N/A 4Vs.

ive always thought that myself...hmmm...

I think i am going to go with 3.73's and plan for down the line and getting my procharger. I know it wont be as fun now, but i would hate to get no traction. And I'll be on street tires 99% of the time so having a lower gear isnt going to help my situation if i have 4.10's.

S/C and 4.10's here as well.

I love the combo, but havent known anything else. But yes.....you'll go thru tires like nobodys business.

I've got 4.10's with my centri as well...I think that you'd find them less steep than someone with a KB setup running 3.73's....the centri doesn't kick in till pretty high rpm's so day to day driving is almost exactly the same

FRPP 3.55's or 3.73's.
