tire change

Instead of changing out my rear gear I am thinking of dropping down from a 28" tire to a 26" does any one have an idea how much that would affect my top end rpm currently I use a 3.73 rear gear.
Thanks

In the doorslammers book it mentions extending the shackle length when removing the leaf clips at the rear of the leaf pack how much longer do the shackles need to be and do i even need to do this if i go with sliders.
