4.56 gear in a LT1?

did a search and surprisingly couldn't find anything. i now have a 4.10 that just took a fat poo today, how would a 4.56 gear react to the T56? drivability and so on.

torque and gears rule the street!
You'll be increasing your torque to the carrier,axles,and tires by 11%.
Your shift times(length of time in gear) will be shorter.
If you considered that 4.10s' had good driveability,you shouldn't notice much of a difference in that area by going to 4.56s'.
