...a litlle insight on Richmond 5 speeds... 5th gear is the 1-1 ratio, 4th being similar to 3rd in a standard 4 speed. As Sal said the low gear pull will make smaller numbers. Also.. I'd be a little leary of a shop that didn't know what gear to use, IMHO.

The Richmond 6 spd is Richmond's only over drive tranny. Their 5 speed is a spin-off from the old Doug Nash 5 speed.
