i’ve been talking to this guy about a car i might buy. it is a c5 w/ some bolt-ons and 4.10 gears. he claimed he only raced it once. my question is, with those gears am i gonna be losing alot of top end vs stock? i don’t really care about 1/4 mi racing that much, so stock would be fine for me. if the 4.10s give better acceleration, thats fine, but i dont want the driveablility to be gone. how would this thing be on the highway? i liked how my LT1 would pull 70MPH in 6th at like 2000RPM…is this possible w/ the 410s?..i’m guessing not. any input on how i should expect this thing to run in different situations? ---

With the gearing you have now at 2000 RPM you should be doing 90 MPH. So I am willing to bet with the 4.10’s you should be able to pull 70MPH at 2000 RPM no problem. ---
