Question 3 speed with a 3:08??

A friend of mine ,U.S. Marine, and fellow 67 C10 owner needs to know if a 3:08 rearend would be too much of a burden on a 6 cylinder with a 3 speed column shift. The truck currently has a 4:11 in it and he is concerned with bogging on takeoff if he changes the rear. I do not see any issue with this swap, can anybody give me an idea as to how it will react? I know highway milage will be better and the RPMs won't be off the chart if he does the swap.

Thanks for your service Brandon!!!!!
