Without bothering to check the spec book, I believe the 4.1 was probably the factory-standard ratio for an overdrive-equipped car so for typical driving it probably wouldn't be quite ideal, but you should still be able to cruise comfortably at 60mph or a bit more, albeit at a slightly higher engine rpm as Fred has indicated. I have several friends with OD equipped cars with the 4.1, and when their OD is inoperative, they still cruise happily at 60 or so.
