Rear end gear ratio behind LS

[Moto Assassin]

I have a mostly stock 5.3 LS with a cam and 3000 stall. I was running 4.56 gears in my rear end but that rear end is toast. My question is if I run the stock 3.73 gears in the new rear end will it be able to get out of its own way? It will be running mostly mid sized tracks in Utah which I am guessing is comparable to larger tracks back east. I did enjoy the quick acceleration of the 4.56 gears but felt like ot didnt have the top end speed I wanted. Sstup will be in crown vics. Any suggestions are appreciated. Here is a link to the video of what the setup was in before for your entertainment. I am in the non painted white crown vic #327

Itll be able to get out of its way fine. Anything from 3.73-4.56 I like depending on track size for Midwest, alot of guys run into 5.38s or whatever now. If your building a rearend, then I'd be more picky with it with track size and what not to get something that's best of both worlds.
