Default Change Gears?

Guys, I am making a 1,600 mile round trip with the Stang on Tuesday. Should I change the 4.10's out for the 3.27's? I am curious how this car will run with them since I never had 3.27's with the Supercharger before.

Yeah, kinda. I think my speedo might have been off a tad. 23 is a little more accurate. I was curious if I could squeeze 28 out of it again like I did when it was new.

Dang 28mpg, I could'nt even image what thats like. I made a 1400 mile round trip to Mississippi a couple times the past few months, and with 4.10's the best I got was about 22mpg, average was about 20mpg.

The 28 MPG was gotten when the car looked like this:
