id base the str on tire selection and the stall speed on cam requirments make sure you dont over do it on str if your not using slicks but also make sure u have as much str as you can use... my ssf3500 is great but being im on 315-35-17 nittos its a bit much now if i had some slicks id be just right

id stay away from 4.10s unless you have a built trans. OD has never historicly been good

3.23s is where id stay

It's probably because of all the great teachers I've got around.

yea dont try to race into 4th too much if you want more top end then 3.73 is a good gear.. im thinkin with the et streets you should be good with a 2.5 stall but it may be still a little bit high but hell i have a 2.5 str and i run 315-35-17 nittos (but like i said i gotta ***** foot it out the hole or ill burn them)
