What percent of high way miles do you drive? I have 67 Galaxie with 3.25's from factory and had 72 Cougar with same. Both cars were manual transmission and seems it was a comfortable cruise. I've been driving for so long with the old 2.70's gears and now with the modern overdrives that higher rpms kind of get on my nerves. I guess it depends on what you want to do with the car but you can't go to far wrong with 3.25's.
