Hello Harald,
<< Wie gehts?Danke gut und selbst?

 I also have an auto tranny in my '90 westy.
 No problems. But I was just wondering what
 the high performance kit is.

I've stronger clutches.

  Do you change the gear ratios, when you
 use the auto tranny with the 5 cyl. conversion?

Not at all.The 5C Cyl. have 6250 rpm as limit

 I would like my engine to rev somewhat slower
 during freeway cruising.

The easy way is with biger tires , every other way is realy expensiv.

 I am also wondering - do you have any
 experience or opinions about different
 transmission fluids for the automatic.
 (example, redline racing auto tranny fluid)

No I had never a problem with any ATF.
If you obtain the fluid level and maintain the transmission every
brand ATF will do it , but don't save money by buying some
unknown brand .

 I have been following your posts about the
 conversions with great interest.

Did you see our 2.6 l special ?
