65 Rear end gear ratio change

Slowly swapping out parts to make my 65 step a little more fuel efficient. Ordered a Pertronix ignitor and coil this morning and looking for a good Holley 390 cfm carb for the Offy manifold I got from geezer#99. Now thinking about swapping out the ring and pinion or rear end to 3.08 or 3.42 from what I suspect are 3.73. I don`t really need the stump pulling power and not wanting to swap out the tranny. Thoughts? What gear set or rear end will swap in without any mods? I am sure this has been answered several times on here but not having any luck finding anything.
