It's not like it equivalent to a 3.73 or 4.10. It is an improvement but not huge. I'd wonder how the performance would be compromised without a low first gear?
Maybe a tenth max..all the gain comes in the 60ft ..I saw a bit of a loss a few years ago going from 3.42's to 3.08's in the 60 foot..

I know this car now would run 10's with a stock gear set it has enough power to lug it.
