I have the same trans and rear gear you have. It is nice cruising 73mph at 2500 in 5th with a useful 1st gear. Autocross in 2nd 25mph 2000rpms- 55mph 4500rpms so not too bad. I thought of 3.55 but the guys here talked me out of it (for now) and I'm glad they did. With the .82 5th and a light car with a big CI motor I'd say your in a good range. 4.10s forget it unless your drag racing.
