Gear ratio recomendation

I had 4.56s for a very short time in my 340 Barracuda. It came that way. The guy I bought it from 25 years ago was going to race it. After I finished restoring it for the first time about 22 years ago, I drove it for a while with the 4.56 gears. I could not stand to drive it on the highway even from one side of town to the other. The revs were WAY too high. To each their own, but I'd think a 35 mile drive at close to 4,000 RPM would be very uncomfortable. I run 3.55s now.
