I have to get my rear rebuilt.

I have 4.10 in there now running a 25.7 drag radial or 26.3 et streets

I cross the finish line at about 122 (real speedometer) or 119-120 on the slip.

I think I may be revving too high as I hit the rev limiter just after the finish line sometimes.

My dyno shows me making peak Hp (403.9) at 3500. It is above 300 from 2600 rpm to about 4800 rpm.

Should I be going down to 3.90 or 3.73 rear to avoid hitting the rev limiter?

I cross about 6700 rpm with my rwhp reading about 180 on the dyno.

All help appreciated.

Forgot to add, I have a 4400 stall converter and my torque line peaks 449.9 at 7000 rpm but I was told that is due to flashing the converter.

It is above 350 from about 400 and steadily increases
