Hello,
i have a 93 lx and am wanting to change the gear. It currently has a paxton blower and a tko 600. It now has a 355 gear. when i went from the t5 to the tko with the 355 it makes it hard to drive. too much first gear and it lags on the pulls in third and forth. seeing if anyone has a similar setup and could recommend a gear. i was thinking of the yukon 390 but not sure if i would be happy(maybe to similar to the 355). Any suggestions would be great. Thanks in advance. Joe

would that be much different than the 355? First gear sucks right now, it is long and takes a while to gain rpm in the lower end

I know there is an undying argument of 410 to 3 myself i feel once at full boost on streets im shifting as fast as i can shift

Centrifugal blowers LOVE gear, since their boost levels increase lineally with RPM. 4:10 is a good blower gear since it gets you up in RPM quick.

3.73 will feel like a lot more gear than a 3.55. 3.90 is more of a jump and a 4.10 you will just sit and spin. jmho.

I ran a 3:73 with my novi 1000 and it was great the 410 was just a little to much.

I tried 3:27, 3:73 and 410.

Run the 3.73's, it will be your best all around gear.
If your looking to race it only, you may want to look at the other gears.
