2.76 vs 2.94 gearing

I have just put a 2.94 gear set in my 68 dart convertible with the 225 slant six. I just had 2.76's in it last summer. Now I also changed some ignition stuff and only had the car out once so far due to all this rain. But on high ways and hills (which is what I drive to work) I really didnt "feel" any major difference when it came to performance. No idea about fuel mileage, but I am sure it would be similar enough that I dont care about the change.
That's kind of what I was assuming but wasnt sure.some of the replies made it sound like the difference would be more dramatic. I'd like to find 2.94's but the 2.76 rear is what's near and available so far.
