Before you ask for gear recommendations, you gotta tell us what your goal is. Is the car your DD? Do you see lots of highway travel? Drag racing?

I would go with 3.73s or 4.10s, depending on how far you plan on taking your mods, and how much you care about going fast at the track. With 3.73s and a stock size tire, you'll be turning about 2565 RPM at 75 mph. With 4.10s it would be 2820 RPM at 75.

the calc is off but 2850at 75 sounds about right, it may be a touch lower than that but right in the area.

I have 3.42's and it really woke my car up. I had 2.77's before. I was gonna go with a transgo shift kit for my car, but I may not bother and hold out for a T56 swap sometime in the future

That's a 27" tall tire, as compared to a 25.6" tall tire.
In overdrive, with that gear and tire @ 90 mph you should have been turning approx. 3,575 RPM. Do you have the correct speedo gears in your car for the gears and tire size that you are running? 3100 RPM works out to about 78 mph.
