I ran both trucks with the same mods intake/exhaust and the 4.10's trapped 1 mph faster in both the 1/8 and the 1/4. Besides, the gearing between the 2 is so close, its not even that much of an advantage off the line. A good driver on 4.10s is gonna be just as fast.

MPH does not equate to ET. ET wins at the track... Higher numerical gear ratio is 99% of the time quicker (not faster) than a lower numerical gear ratio all things being equal.

True not much difference between those tqo rears but ET and MPH are 2 different things.
