sorry I'm too lazy to list mods takes too long on cell phone lol anyways the car runs 13.1@108 street tires on motor with current 410s but I recently bought 125 dry shot (not installed yet). I run out of 4th before the end of 1/4 and am now thinking about 373s since I would be well into 5th at 118-120mph with the 410s. I use the car for DD and prolly 10 days a summer at the track. Are 373s capable of 120 in 4th and how much better for driving aroundd town and on the highway. Also how much pull will I lose. Thanx

Yes, put the 3.73s in. Shifting into 5th when drag racing is about as smart as racing in reverse.

haha thanx man that pretty much sums it up, I figures with the addition of nos that 373s would be better but I just wanted some opinions.

could you do a 28 in tire instead of a gear swap?

I wouldn't. It doesn't need a bigger tire. A 26 inch slick is plenty of tire for what that car is running. A bigger tire is heavier rotating mass. Run the smallest tire you can hook.
