I would not put 4.10s in an auto trans street car. I would ditch that weak 2000 stall, and bump the stall speed to 3500 at least (this is about ideal for a stock LS1). I'd leave the stock gears alone. It's shocking how good these cars can 60-foot with stock gears and the right stall speed (plus tires of course).

No Particular order.
If the rear is good, toss it in too. On a N/A Setup, a bump in converter and gearing is a great thing. IF you needed to do one or the other. Make sure the transmission is in good shape as when you blow it to pieces 9 times out of 10 you contaminate the converter and you will need to replace it again.

You can get away with 4.10s on the stock 26" tire unless you're trapping over 125, so I think it's a good idea to put the 4.10s in with a better stall.

Thats not always true. I had to change to 28" tires because I was hitting OD. 100 feet before the 1/4 mile mark. I trap 119-120mph. Use this calulator and you can figure out your speed with differnt gear ratios. Make sure you tell it your an auto tranny 4L60E. http://www.pszweb.com/car/gears.htm
