I'm uncertain that we have any known quantities at all to work with.We have no idea what your BSFC is doing one way or the other.
Hucho is going to tell you to streamline the hell out of the truck,and do whatever you can for rolling resistance,and only then,when you're finished modifying,figure out your gear-matching from there to optimize the road load reduction.
If you initially do the gearing,you may shoot yourself in the foot if you modify the truck later.
Gearing is at the end of the efficiency equation,not the beginning.
