Default 4.10s and a 27" tire??

I am going to wait one more track day till i pull the trigger on gears, but i just wanted to see what some of you thought, if i am on the right track. As of now i have a strange 12 bolt with 3.73s. I really havent had much track time with the new 402, but i went last weekend and after watching the video i am just shifting to 4th shortly before the traps when on motor. The track wasnt good to make a n20 pass. I know that 4.10s would be perfect on motor, but on the jug i dont know. I can spin to 6800-7000. I also need some new dot tires for some of the classes i end up running in. I was figuring if the Hoosier QTPs in a 27/15 were good that would put my effective gear ratio at like 3.93 and at 6800 that is good for a 133 trap. So far the best i have trapped on motor is 117, but that was short shifting out of first and second. I know that it has a 120+ trap in it on motor, just havent found it yet. I dont want to put a 28" tire on as i absolutely refuse to roll my fenders, i spent the whole last summer and a ton of $$ on the body to make it perfect. Will the 27's work with that gear and will they fit without mods??
