Are 4.11s too much gear for me?
Last time at the track i ran a 12.1 @ 125 w/ 2.2 60 footer on a 100 shot, street tires, cammed ls1. 3.42s seemed to work just fine because i finished right at the end of that gear.
I blew that engine up and have a 404 now. Will probably be doing heads cam and maybe spraying some more.
I think i will be trapping that or more. Will 4.11s be too much?
I will probably be doing an 8.8 swap so 4.11s will be easy to find out of an explorer.

Traction was in the tires. I just upgraded them to nittos.
Btw, ive gotten 2.0s on my old tires, that just happened to be my best run.
I have tubular lcas, phb, adj torque arm, sfcs, and an airbag.
I said that I switched to nittos, so they will probably help it hook better. I just got 275 nittos.
1le swaybars, slp level 2 suspension.

Your gonna want/need more tire with that setup I'm sure. I'd stick with the steeper gearing like your planning and step up to a nice bias ply tire for the strip because you have a stick car. If your having to go into 5th before the traps then a 28" tire will get your back down to 4th.
