Default advice on gears or stall

I currently just bought a stock 2002 z28 auto and it has 2:73's and i was wondering if i should get a stall or 3:73's cause its dead slow when punching from lower MPH. thanks in advanced!

This going to be a daily driver? Whats your goals?

A verter will definetly "wake" the car up.. so, be prepared to get better tires. But, if you go too big on the stall, it will feel loose with the 2:73's and you prolly wont like it. The 3:73's will help alot with that. but, you loose RPM on the highway. Im talking doing 70 and hittin 2500-2600 rpm.

I recently went from 3:23's to 3:73's and it feels alot more driveable then before. But, mine is not a daily driver so I did not care really.
