Default SS3800...what gears?

Ok so i just bought a Yank SS3800 and also a Moser 12-Bolt which has 4.10's in it.

I'm 99.75897676% sure i will want to change the gears...but i'm undecided if i should go down to 3.73 or 3.42

My car will be all bolt-on...and doesn't see the track THAT much
I rather not lose alot of top-end either...but would liek to pull well on the highway when need be

Also...what kind of gears should i get...Strange, Richmond?
I want strength but not a ton of noise...but i figure w/ eitehr of these ratio's and an awesome installer that shouldn't be a problem
From what i see...Richmond seems to be the choice

So help me out :worship:

I would give the 410's a shot since they are already installed.From there you will be able to figure out what to go to next. you may like them. I have no need for gears, even with nitto first gear is mostly tire spin on the street.

If you dont race alot then Id go 342s Great gear for all purposes. I just installed a TCI 3800 and I run 342s and it is a great combo for a street and strip car, You will be happy. I dont think you will gain more than a tenth in the 1/4 between 373s and 342s.

As for gears I dont like richmond had them in a few different cars and they tend to be noisey.
