Default 4.10's with ASA Cam? Good choice?

My car is a daily driven street car so let me throw that out there. It has never been to the track nor do I intend to take it. With that said would a set of 4.10 gears help my car move out faster on the street with the GMPP ASA cam and full bolt ons? My car is a 6 speed with a centerforce DFX clutch and Fidanza flywheel. Basically I'm looking for a good way to make the car quicker on the street utilizing the power it has now with a set of drag radials. I know the 10 bolt is weak but I'm not pushing 1000 hp so it should be fine, just looking for opinions. Thanks

i had that cam and i thought it was just fine with stock gears because it had such a good broad torque curve, but i dont see why not go for the 410's.

I did 3:73s. Noticed a differenced but I'm on my second set. I broke the **** out of some teeth on the last ones. Possible contributing factors to that, rear end leak might have leaked enough oil to not lubricate them or maybe it was the ******* stomping I gave it right before I heard them break! 4:10s are weaker so I went with another 3:73s from GM though. Cam listed below

Sweet, yeah I think I'll give it a shot. If I break something in the rear then it's a valid excuse to get a 12 bolt.

I ran 4.56's and then 4.30's for awhile with my ASA cam.....was lotsa fun.
