is it no longer a bolt on car?
I will say that a gearing change is minor compared to a transmission swap. Especially a c4. Off the top of my head besides the gearing, there is the advantage of less shifting, longer time in power band. Also the faster shifts of a drag racing specific transmission will help (unless he put in a factory c4 in it). Better/harder launches due to a drag racing specific transmission.
Also we can swap out gearing in the fwd world too.
