Help me choose gears

alright, getting my 10 bolt rebuilt, and im not sure what gear ratio to go with.
In the not-so distant future, my 383 will be done and installed
Specs of the motor:
forged bottom end
ported 64cc trickflow heads
zero-decked block
LPE 219/219 560/560 cam
4l60E

For now i will be (regrettably) on street tires, but eventually drag radials or slicks, i know i can do 3.73s with 26" tire and probably be fine since that would allow me to go around 120 in 3rd in a 1/4, or i could go 3.90s w/ a 28" tire which would allow 125 in 3rd in a 1/4.
Would there be any advantage to either of these? Please help
