Default Preferred Drive Ratios on 93"?

You guys gave me the formulas to figure these drive ratios out and the time has come to implement them. Before money starts flowing for new sprockets, what do you think of this combo for the mighty stroker engine and what ratios does that particular engine size love most?

51T on rear wheel
22T trans sprocket
24T engine sprocket.

Thanks

I don't have experience with 93" motors but that rear ratio is pretty short - you'll be fast bar to bar but wishing for overdrive when you are on the highway. Unless you have a rear drum brake, you will probably be happier with a 48T rear sprocket.
