I'm gonna go out on a limb and say 2.93.
But really we do need the tire hieght.
What is the size of the tires? 225/70/14 or...??

As far as gears to get off the line better we need more info. Motor, cam, weight, intended use of the car. Any gears that are lower (higher numericaly) will get you moving quicker but will give you worse milage and could be more annoying on the highway. The trick is to find the right compromise for you.
