Default Top speed for 3:73 gears?

I think my rear end has a 3:23 gear, but i want to put a 3:73 cause i think it will pull harder. But does anyone know what ill top out at? Cause i still want to have plenty of top end.

I have 4:11 in mine and I am told that mine tops out at around 80...I imagine 3:73s would top at around 100/110. My best guesstimate.

numerically, at 6000 rpm with 3.73's and a 0.7:1 4th gear, the car would be going 175 mph. How much power you have will decide how realistic reaching that speed would be.
