I can't give you an exact time, but I do believe the 3.90's will make a huge difference.
I'm running a totally stock 305 TPI and I have no problem beating cars with way more power than my car 0-60.
I don't worry about running out of breath at the end of the quarter mile because I don't race quarter mile.
The only problem I have is traction. If I spin, I lose.
I see it like this: if we meet on the street, and I'm faster 0-60(pretty much light to light) I win! Forget about the quarter mile, get the 3.90's!

I'd stick with the 3.42 gears, that way you can still do great in the 1/4 mile and still get decent gas milage.
