Other people that have them should jump in I do Not. Just repeating what I have read. < Message edited by Yellow Tang -- 5/12/2008 6:50:00 PM > _____________________________ (in reply to 1badV6) Post #: 2

For manuals the preference is 3.73 all the way. _____________________________ 2005 Mustang 4.0: tb bypass, Single Flowmaster AT, BBK cai,93 octane tune, J&M LCAs 2007 Escape 3.0L: step rails ;-P Kentucky Racing !!!!!!
