You need sticky tires.

I would say stick with the 3.73s..... Maybe 4.10s with a centri and some sticky tires...... don't do 4.10s w/ a Twin Screw or Roots style blower......

I would stick with the 3.73's if you plan on buying the KB. KB reccomends not to ecced 18000 rpm's at the blower. With 3.73's, you'll reach that at around 6K with the factory crank pulley.

4.10s and a 4v with a KB are going to be too much for anything close to a street tire.
