MPG will go down on the highway but can get better in the city. I know guys who swapped in 4.10s and get better gas mileage in the city. 
LSD will help you hook on the launch which is 90% of a drag race. Taller gears will greatly help your 1/4 mile time. Yes, you will lose some topend speed, but you will get to the end quicker cuz a 1/4 mile is a pretty short race (comparitively). If you were running a 1 mile race then your topend will be more affected.
There are people who have lowered their 1/4 time by .4 seconds by installing LSD and taller gears.
