Most people wouldnt be able to tell the difference SOTP between 3.90 and 4.10's.
Just remember that the 60e/65e/70e has a 0.70:1 OD ratio while the 80e/85e has a lower 0.75:1 OD ratio, which is roughly 200rpm difference on the highway.
To get your low speed acceleration back, I suggest a higher stall TC, as if you regear to get your low speed acceleration back, highway revs will be too high.
3.90's would be a good all aroudn gear for you, so would 4.10's. I vote 3.90s as you allready have them.
