I assume this is a 98-02 f-body? That setup should easily crack into the 10's if you hook

Depending on tire size and how high you spin it you may run out of gear on the spray depending on shot size with the 3.73's

I would go 3.73's.

With a 28 in. tire, 4l60e and say around 8% converter slip, 3rd gear (which is your 1:1 gear) will run you out until about 135 mph. You should be more than fine.
