    For all those people who find it more convenient to bother you with their question rather than to Google it for themselves.

          Depends on what rear end you have, too.

          I have a 4.10 and I can do 20-something in first, yet when I had my 2.93, I could get all the way to 50 mph.

            that sucks. automatics can go 50mph in 1st gear too - and they're slow as balls. I had a 3-speed that did 60mph in 1st. Guess what - they don't make 3 speeds anymore. ;)

            20-something is a pretty low estimate. I can do about 35 in 1st gear with 4.10s, even a 6700rpm redline can do 30 on stock diameter tires. people exaggerate how short a 4.10 is.
