 I've got a 4
speed tranny. Now, this is not an issue of improved mileage or anything
like that, its just I don't feel very comfortable driving 65mph for
extended periods with the engine sounding like my motorcycle when I've
got it pegged at about 12,500rpm.

                                       *************************************

I'm pretty sure that final drive ratio of four speed is about the same ratio 
as final drive ratio of five speed. Five speed just has ratios closer for each 
gear.
