89 mph through the traps in 3rd with 3.42's and a 25.7" tire should put you at almost 4000 rpm (assuming no coverter slippage)
100 mph on N2O should come out to about 4500 with the same setup (again,
no slippage)

With 4.10's, 89 mph is more like 4800 rpm, and 100 mph is about 5400. Converter slippage is likely to make all of those numbers higher, but it looks like 4.10's are the perfect gear for you in the 1/8 mile.

RPM = (MPH x Gear Ratio x 1056) / (Tire Dia. X Pi)

Good Luck with that setup!

4.10s-4.56s hell, daily driving you wouldn't know Chris had 4.10s. Big cam, heavy car, big stall...steep gear.
