If your going to stay with 28 tall slicks a 4:56 gear would be good
your vega would like a loser convertor

I used to have 29tall slicks with my 4:86 gears I was at 7500 on chip
same slicks same gears with old motor was at 6,000 rpms ran 12.70 mostly stock 355

my convertor is a 8" ati was around 4300 with 355
stalls now at 5400 with my 385

run it and get used to car make small changes and have lots and lots of fun!!!!
