Agreed!!! I had a 79 Malibu that was a factory 4-speed, had 3.08s in it.
Higher gear ratios are a crutch for poor torque. Big blocks work well with highway gears. Then again, all my big block experience is in big block Cadillacs.
Alternatively you can change your tire size. I have a set of dinky tires I put on my Mustang when I autocross it. They drop the car almost an inch and put me right in my power band. It looks a little goofy, but makes a huge difference in performance.
