Hi Tim,
Your gear ratio could work with the TKO-600 .64. It really depends on your cam profile. The gear ratio with be about 67 mph in 4th gear. When you shift into 5th the rpm will drop to 1920 at the same speed. The .82 would be 2480... It depends on what speed on the highway and cam profile.
If you have any questions, feel free to call me weekends 781 248 8946 or weekdays 508 875 0016.
I stock all the TKO models and could supply you with all related parts to assemble the driveline. You could also use the T-56 Magnum and have the best of both transmissions with 2 overdrives....
