Most super guys love 3.73 or 4.10 gears. with six speed not much reason to not run 4.10.

Depends on max rpm and tire size.
I am running 3.73s, but that put me at 7400+ rpms in the quarter with a 28 inch tire.
I don't like spining my motor past 7000. I would change, but the 1/8 mile tracks are most popular down here.
