It wouldn't be near as big of a jump in torque going from 3.91 to 4.10 as it is going from 3.55 to 4.10. Like HeyYou said, what size tires are you running? Since you say that you're stock then your gears should be perfect. 3.91 gears are good for 245/75/16 to 265/75/16. 4.10 gears are good for 265/75/16 to 285/75/16. 4.56 gears are good for 285/75/16 to 315/75/16.
But the best combo is 3.55 for 225/75/16 - 3.91 for 245/75/16 - 4.10 for 285/75/16 - 4.56 for 315/75/16.

Hemifever will do custom tunes WITH a tuner for 365. Don't pay the outrageous price.

Is your truck pre-'96? Otherwise, I can't figure out where that guy was coming from. Even at that, $700 seems crazy high.
