Need Advice!

I am going to most likely purchase another Trans Am WS.6. My last one was a 30,000 mile 2000 Trans Am WS.6 M6 Bone Stock...all I did was install a SLP Intake, Smooth Bellow, and a cut-out. It ran great, but due to my job sucking I had to sell it. I just now sold the car I never use....(my old Mustang) and want to get a 35,000 mile 2001 WS.6 M6 with a 12 bolt, built 6-speed, slp intake, and Full Exhaust! I should be pleased! My question is this strange 12 bolt on the car has 4.30 gears in it! Now I drove this car and it pulls hard! Really Fun to drive but it almost seems that I am in and out of the gears to quickly!

Question 1. Is 4.30's too much!!!??? Is any body else running 4.30's????
Question 2. In the future what type of cam should I go with since the gears are so steep! I am a fan of the 224/224 duration cams but gears like this might compliment a larger duration cam!

Thanks in Advance

I think it depends on how you intend to use the car....is it track only, DD or combo.
