 The speed at 4000 RPM with a .815 would be @ 78 MPH. The actual speed would
 be determined by the tire height.

 The RPMs do not drop a lot from the four speed .85 fourth gear. That is why
 I decided to go with a .70 fifth gear not a .82 when it was rebuilt. At 4000
 RPMs I can go @95 MPH with a top speed of @133 befor the rev limiter would
 activate.  I had a taller fifth put in to cut the RPMS, now they will be @
 3100 RPM at 70 MPH.

Thanks for the great info. Robert.
