I forgot to mention that my trans is a 700r4.

  I am going to change the rear end on my 57.  I have a 307 in the truck now 
but will replace it with a ZZ4 in the future.  My question is what is a good 
gear ratio to use for the replacement?  I use the truck daily, in a lot of 
traffic.  More in town driving than highway.  And, I prefer quickness over top 
end speed.

  Any advice would be appreciated.
