Default Whats the best rear end gear for Nitrous

im just curious to what rear end gear is best for nitrous? im starting my 370 build and once the motor is done ima have a cam specd out from pat g or someone and if the cam is real large i would like to run 4.11 gears or maybe 4.56s depending on cam size for drivability. and on top add a 150-200 wet plate kit. would 4.11s or 4.56s be too much gear makin the rpm span real short and not utilize the nitrous spray? i should note this will be a st car. any info would be great!

im sure you will want at least a 4.11 or 4.33, 4.56 is really steep

There is no right answer to this question. Tire size isn't known, you have no idea where the power band will be as you don't even have camshaft spec's yet, no rpm limit on the motor given...

And the answer, will be strictly opinion based, as there is no right answer for a "street car"
