I'd go with 4.10's. Would the 4.30's be too much off the line with that cam?

yeah i' am but the only suspension mods are sfc and a torque arm so its expected.

the advantage to steeper gears are getting out of the hole faster, get into powerband quicker with bigger cams

I have a LG torque arm, LG LCAs, and some 315 wide nitto 555Rs help too. I get pretty good traction when it's dry and I don't beat on the car when it's wet outside.
