Gear to gear at any rpm yes more torque with the 4.10's but.... speed in gears is now different and at certain vehicle speeds the 3.45 car is going to be in a lower gear than the 4.10 car therefore the 3.45 will effectively have more torque in certain speed ranges. Numerically taller gears will not make every car faster in every circumstance, gears should be chosen based on the cars power output, traction, intended purpose and driving style.
