Question Questions regarding Patrick G's Torque Cam

I am very interested in a setup like this, because I am more interested in torque and power under the curve than all out big numbers. I rarely take the car to the track; just like to have fun with it around town. Would 4.10's be too much gear for this cam (Patrick had 3.42's)? How would Patriot Golds or PRC Platinum's hold up with the LSK lobes and high lift? What are some other cam options that have similar gains as this one? Thanks,
-Marc

4.10s will work great, but 1st gear will be useless on the street, LOL. PRC duals will work as long as you shim them to within .050" of coil bind. Make no mistake though, this cam makes big top-end power too...it's not just about torque.
