Chuck, if you go to a numerically higher gear your acceleration will be greater. The downside is, with all other things staying the same, you will not have as high of a top end. Don't feel bad, by Delta has a type O with 2.73:1 gears. I barely turn 2,000 rpm at 70mph. This is an improvement I have been considering. Are those kits complete with new gears and everything? What is the price?
