you would have to change rear gears to get benefit, but they put 3.42 1st gear ST-10s in 81 TAs with 301, 305's. add a 2.73 rear, plenty of complete 4 wheel disc out there.
some were steel case and some were aluminum.
multiple your 1st gear by the rear gear to see what you want to end up with. the standard late 4 speed was around 2.64 1st gear, so multiplied by your 3.42 rear, the 3.42 1st gear would take off like your car does now, but have the 2.73 cruise you are looking for.
