Still not sure if I like the 4.10's or not yet. The track will tell.

I'm afraid I will have to shift into 5th in the1/4. 
I still have the stock cam & springs. No high rev limiter here. Car also does not seem faster like I thought it would w/4.10's.

I think that you'll probably be o.k., I was used to being able to go 50 in first gear before having to shift... and it did take a while to get used to, but I do liek them now alot better.
I don't know what else you have done to your car from the last time you ran it, but unless you plan on trapping in the 120's, I wouldn't worry about it. The motor's only there for a couple seconds anyway, and if it bothers you, you can always push in the clutch after you go thru the traps so drop the rpm back quicker.
12.8 @ 110, was that on street tires ( non DR )? If so, that's not bad for what you have listed for mods.

You wont need to shift 5th, don't worry about that.
I had the same exact feeling with my 12 bolt and gears but after a track visit you'll see. I just spent 10 minutes trying to explain how it feels but I can't, you'll see at LVD.
Like others said, people drop a couple of tenths in stock cars with just gears. They must be doing something right
