Opinions Needed...and a pic

I posted a question about my rear end before but can decide what the best solution for my problem is.

I Have a 327 w/ a 3 speed AT and 4.11's. The issue is I do a lot of freeway driving and this setup isn't working for me.

I've looked for a 3rd member with milder gears to swap and can't find one. I also called around to rebuild my 3rd member and I have been told its hard to find the proper gears for a stock 1962 housing, is that true?

Another option I am thinking about is putting in a 4 speed AT w/ OD so I can still have my lowend torque and be able to cruise on the freeway.

What would you do if you want the best setup for a cruiser but are on a limited budget? Also what do you think it should cost for the different options if I remove/install the parts but have a shop rebuild the gears or find a used tranny?

Thanks, Alex
