Which gear to run? 74 nova 07 LY6 L92 headed 6 liter TSP .624/.617 229/236 cam on 111lsa.On a 150 shot. Spec 3+ Face platted T56 with 28x10.50 slicks. Car weighs 3404 with me in it and a half tank of fuel.
I had 3.91's in it at first but whoever set them up did NOT know what they were doing. I liked them but First gear on the street was a joke with my 26" tall 18's on it. I was only in first for a few feet and basically wasted a shift(which sucks with a faceplatted trans.) So i was thinking about going up a lil in gear and using second as first on the street when i have my 18's on the car. Then at the track with the slicks should be just about right?
Thoughts on 4.30's or 4.11's?

Like i said it will be on 28" slicks for track use. The 18's are my street tire and with 4.11's or 4.30's ill use second as first.
