I was running 3.42's...they broke and now I'm back to the 2.73's. I need to quit being lazy and get some more 3.42's or 3.73's

With that cam, 3.73's or 4.10's are going fit the bill nicely, if not driven much on the interstate.

I'd go with 3.73's on a 26ish tire. 4.10's are a little much for the garden variety lt1 trying to run out the back door with a short tire.

Now... 28's and. 4.10 would be great.

3.73s will probably suit you well with the nitrous

3.73's and a 27" tire. Cruise on the thruway at 65mph at around 3300ish. My converter slips a lot though, so if you have a tight converter you'd be sub 3k.

I stay with you should run 4.10's. I know the guy and the car is only going to be driven when he wants to race or show off lol. So for what you want to do put some 4.10's in it and that thing will come out the hole hard.
