What gears should I go with ?

Thanks for the info Night Stalker ...Right now, I have the smaller of the two combos but will be upgrading it to the bigger combo as soon as funds allow ...So for now, I guess Ill go with the 4.56 s and when I upgrade I will change to the 4.10s ...what do you think about just maybe running the 4.56s with the smaller combo??

you can,, but the cam will tell depending on the spec's of the camshaft.. top end will maybe suffer alittle.. But as i said it'll depend on the cam spec's..

4.10 gear's for that one.. that'll make good power down low thru mid range,,as the lift isn't really big enough to make the motor breathe up in higher rpm's...shift it at 6,000 rpms and you'll be good to goe. 8)

I think you gave the link for the wrong cam. Double check your cam specs.
