Booked for 150km, speedo showing from what I can recall was 155km, fully worked 202 Red, trimatic with overdrive, cresta 3.5 rear end. The overdrive being the main reason it can pull 150km no probs, only a little shaking in the van.

be handy for fuel economy, cruise on less revs thus less fuel consumption.

I found that an overdrive improved fuel economy marginally depending on diff ratio in the first place. I had a 2.75 ratio 9" added an overdrive then changed diff to 3.5 & ended up with the same economy ( overdrive gave me 5% improvement only over no overdrive). The biggest factor is the frontal area & weight of the van. Swapping the holden six for a 350 chev only dropped my consumption by 6% but I put this down to all the drive train & motor adding 250kg to the weight of my van.The biggest advantage of an overdrive is lower engine revs & makes it a lot quieter & prolongs the life of the motor.
