A major point in my first post was the fact that I did make the change. My original design of the car was for a T56, but went with the toploader to spend more on a great paint job. Hence, I changed the intent of the car by changing the transmission.

It was great around town and short trips on the freeway, but cranking around 5000 RPM to go 70 for a long time takes it's toll. So, I went in between on the trans swap and decided on the .64 OD gear TKO600.

Big difference in milage and drivability for long distances.

Thanks again to JimiG for his help.
