I got a bluebird with a ford 391CID (about same engine that a 370 CID) and when it got 10 K behind you feel it. It's ok for a haul once in a while(not fast), but if you going to haul on a regular base you will need something else. A 3208 is not much stronger that a 370 CID. What ever the gearing you put in, is not going to give you more power, there is a ratio to respect with power/weight/speed, and there is no way you can change that with swaping gears.
EX: put your foot on a bicycle, higher the ratio, harder it is to push on the pedal & you have to have the capacity(be strong enough)but it goes faster & take longer to get at speed. But if you're lack of power you use lower ratio, but it's slower on top end but quicker to take off. Those are the law of physic & can not be change.
Hoping it help a bit.
