ZZ4 and Tremec 3550

I'm currently running an LG4, 5-speed, with 3.23s. I'm considering the ZZ4 backed by a Tremec 5-speed and 3.42s or 3.73s. Any comments or advice?

I have seen a car with a WC (Wold Class later T-5's are stronger) T-5 that runs well, but depending on the power you are looking for in the end you may be better off with a T-56 it is much stronger and with 6th gear a 3.73 rear gear still gets good mpg.
