You would have to put a locker of some type in the rear in order to get posi. The 3:73 gears will make the car launch faster, but take away from the top end. It will also make you run a higher rpm on the highway, which will use more fuel. The 4:10 gear will do the same, but you will have even more launch and less top end.

If you don''t already own a Ford (or Ford owned product), get one.
