It's an 8 speed auto. I'm sure the first few gears are plenty quick even with a 2.77 rear gear ratio present. Should work just fine.
Too much rear gear and first gear in the transmission would be virtually useless.
The inherent advantage of more gears is improved mileage while still remaining very aggressive in terms of ratio in the essential drag racing gears. Then have your upper gears produce great mileage in conjunction with the 2.77.
Best of both worlds. Putting in too much gear would pretty much kill driveability with an 8 speed transmission.
