just changed mine to the "black" gear and it seems close
i had removed a "natural" from when it had a 3.08 as i also had installed a 3.55
but it still depends on your tire size and speedo
there are a couple of web sites that will give you some guidance

no i did a direct swap, the th350 and a muncie use the same small gear set, some members may have some laying around, this website has some good info or you can use keislers site to calculate rpm and speed,
