I think all 5spd '05 NA Saleens came with the 3.55 ratio. I had some 3.73 in a '96 supercharged cobra and that was a good set up.  If my '05 would have come with any gear lower than the 3.55, then I would of swapped to the 3.73. Has anyone swapped from the 3.55 to the 3.73 in the NA Saleen?  Was it a noticable difference? _____________________________ Tim 05 S281 #122 (brakes and chrome), Saleen S/C 87 Buick GN (in reply to 06Saleen3V) Post #: 11
