Default Gear question
I'm considering a set of gears for my baby. I have an 03 GT auto. Only performance mods are Superchips tuner (lower octane tune!), throttle body spacer, BBK fender fed cold air, BBK pulleys, and SLP Loudmouth catbacks. One of these days I'll get shorty headers and a midpipe.

What gears come stock? What would be a good set for me to get considering what I have? Thanks in advance for any advice!!

If your staying N/A go for 4.10s if you plan on getting a SC then 3.73s. From the factory, GT's came with 3.27s.

I dissagree about the 3.73 as the GT is an auto. I would go 4.10's with your auto to help you get er done!
