Default What gears with a TCI4400?

I have a 2000 SS with stage II heads and 231/237 cam. Right now I have a 3600 convertor and 3:73 gears. I just bought a TCI4400 and was wondering if I should stick with the 3:73 gears. Any suggestions?

Thanks

I have a TCI 4400 and had the 3.73 gears it was pretty nice. I had a best of a 1.494 60'. Since I added a Moser 12 Bolt and 4.11's. I haven't taken it to the track yet but on the street it is incredible. It pulls like you wouldn't believe...

I had a TP4400 with 4.11s, and the 4.11s "tightened" the convertor up quite a bit, made it more streetable, as well as 1.54 60fts on BFG Drs, stock internals 3660lbs........

I'd stick with 3.73's. Unless your mainly a drag racer then go with 4.11's.

I can't imagine what fuel economy would be with 4.11's.

Driving down the highway isn't bad with the 4.11's and they make the converter tighter around town. I wouldn't switch back...
