A different Q on 340 Vs 416

True words right there!
What makes me ask is that i already know where i am with the 340cube version of this with both gear ratios, and the 3.21:1gears with the 340 kind of works but is certainly not even remotely close to right,but it works nice with 3.91 gears and 26" tires.

The goal is a fun car that will rarely be raced. just a fun driver for nice summerdays with what most outside of the carhobby would call stupid power.
Without an overdrive transmission your rear gear choices are fewer. If you only drive the car occasionally and never any long, long distances I'd go for the lower gear just for the fun of it!! But that just me??
That's why I went with the 2004R overdrive. 4:10/4:11 gears, tall tires and decent gas mileage.
