Dave:
Thanks.
As I am running 29.4 inch overall tire diameters, I expect the truck to drive as designed. The mod should just give me a bit better gas mileage, while taking some revs off the 1962 Chevy 235.
I have considered swapping the OE Muncie 4-speed for a Saginaw 3 speed I have on the shelf. I just thought I'd try the R&P change before I got into any trans issues. Being in south Jersey it's pretty darned flat here. Based on this, I'm not too concerned about the use of the low gear ratios in the Muncie with the 3:38 R&P
