i believe the richmond 5spd, is the old doug nash 5 spd, a true close ratio tranny, that was designed to use a street cruising rear gear ratio ( about 3.23 or so), but now with the super low 1st gear, it was like switching the rears to 4.56's with the original 4spd. And yes, 5th gear is 1:1 like was said above.
