whats best for my app.

[SC boss]

I hate to ask guys but im not sure what is the best route. I am getting ready to purchase a TrueTrac for my car and Im wanting to do a gear change in the process. The car put down 615/500 and its a street car with 20" drag radials, 3500 stall auto and it seems to hook rather well with the stock gears, I dont want to have major traction issues with the car should I stay with stock ratio? Maybe go up to some 355's or 373's? I plan to get the car to the track but it will be mostly a street car and I didnt know if 373's would be to much of a difference. What do you think?

TIA,
Shawn

3:73 FTW!

I have 4:10s and 1st gear is useless . I would go with the 3:73 gear .

I have 373's sitting in my garage but did not know if it would be best. I really dont want to fight for traction with this car, to me its already a handful and im still getting to know it. Thanks for the replies

I'm guessing you don't have an auto trans or drag radials...

I'm not sure how good 20" DRs are on the street. But, I can tell you that with 4.10s and the 17" M&Hs, mine is very streetable. With you having a centri, 3.73s should be fine. Unless those 20" tires really suck.

To be honest with you I really cant compare the 20" Drag Radials to anything other than my previous 04 Mach 1 with 18" M&H's (big power difference now though). But with these 20"/305's they really seem to hook, I just dont know how far im pushing them so I figured that I would ask. Thanks for the comments and I think im going to just use the 373's since I already have them and so far everyone thinks I will be good.
