With heads, cam, and intakeyou'll be able to make power at higher rpms. Even though you will accelerate faster you will have higher shift points now and the 4.10's shouldn't top out before your power band ends. If it doespull out of your power bandslightly taller tire will help out.A 26 inch tire should be fine for you right now though with 4.10's.

Its kind of dumb to say "I WOULD NEVER EVER RUN THIS GEAR RATIO," because shorter gears can always allow you to run a taller slick without bogging if your car's wheel wells can handle it. Taller slickshave stronger sidewalls and resist ballooning, cupping, growth etcbetter.
