Default How much Power should I have?? What Gears??

I am just wondering what kind of times and power i will be putting down after i install my 3.42 gears, midlength pacesetters, and pcm tune. Car already has 2400 stall, slp catback, CAI, K&N. If anybody has any estimates on times or power i would appreciate it. Car is a LT1. I also have an extra set of 3.73 laying around, how would those compare to the 3.42 as of gas mileage and running them on street tires??

1 gazzilion sounds about right, however i would go with 9.59 rear gear ratio.



No really though i would have to agree with 265-275, however i dont know too much about gears, doesnt it also depend on the tranny as well?
