Default Gearing reccomendation for my setup

Well, I'm finally ready to break down and get a 12 bolt and would like your opinion on what ratio I should get. my combo is as follows:

346" stock heads, 224/224 cam, headers, LS6
built 4L60E, vig 3200 converter
spraying 100 Wet shot (will spray 150 soon)
car traps 123 mph on a 100 shot easing off the line (1.8-1.9 60' times) with a stock 3:23 gear.

My goal is to run in the 10's yet I still dive the car regularly on the street. I am not against going to a 28" tire (currently on 26" tires).

I would suggest 28" tires and 3.73 gears since you drive her on the street still, the 3.73 and your stock tires will work well still. If it was more of a race car and you lived close to the track etc, I would do 4.10 and 28" tires with your setup.
