I've run the numbers and a 3.55 is best theortically; however I,m going to try the 3.08 with stroker first.

Unfortunately, my speedo cable disintegrated when I went to change the speedo gear for the new ratio. My supplier is backordered so although I've driven the car and am extremely happy with the 3.55's, we'll have to wait to give you the right numbers.

3.08s aren't going to work for you. Especially with a stroker, you'll be lugging the engine on the street. Strokers need to breath, BBs need to spin to make power.
