Ok so I went to a car show on Saturday and I,m getting really tired of 3,000 rpm when i,m going 60. So here is what I have! 71 RR with a 440+6 auto trans and 4:11 rear gears with P275-60-15 rear tires. Going to change the rear gears so do i go with 3:55 or 3:23 . I,m afraid that 3:23 won,t give the low gear kick that I like. Opinions Please!!!!!!! Personally I'd keep the 4.11(?)gears, and go with a 4spd auto OD or 5/6 speed manual...but that's just me, IMHO the 3:23/3:55 will disappoint you from a performance stand point on the street or track

If it's a cruiser/driver, go 3.23. A 440 makes plenty of torque to turns the tires still. If your barely on the highway 3.55s would be ok too with the 28" tires.

I've run 276, 323 AND 488 GEARS in the same car over the years. The 488 stand out as not drivable. Negligible difference between 323 and 276 performance wise but I'm thinking ill go back to 276 when the new torque engine goes in.
I also run an 833od with all the gears.

For the street with 15" tires, I love the 3.55s
That is what my T/A had, thousands of happy miles. :-)
3.55 all the way
