Default 3.55's is my final decision agree?

My plans are heads cam suspension vortech. Relitive to approx. 450 hp. So I feel this ratio is the best for my plans?

3.55 will be perfect, its not to drastic. with 4.10's. youll run out of first gear SO fast it wont even be funny.

3.55 is great. im either gonna go with 3.27's or stick to my 3.08's (but get a new set) since im gonna drop a single turbo on my car

I like my 3.55s, and I'm not even making big power. They're a good gear.

I vote 3.73s and a 28" tall tire for the track. You won't run out of gear.

I like my 3.55s, but I would have went 3.90s if these weren't given to me for free.
