Really, If they would have had the 3:73 for the rear, I would have ordered the .64 5th. Go to the Second Strike Calculator and play around with the rear gears and the 5th speed and you will see what I mean. With 3:73's, and a .64 5th you get a nice cruising speed/rpm ratio.

Try 3.31 with the .82 5th- about perfect
