There were several different gearboxes used through the years but the best
of the five-speeds ('85-'87) runs a 3.45, 1.94, 1.29, .97, and .80 through a
4.11 final drive.  The best four-speed ('80) was 3.45, 1.94, 1.29 and .882
through a 4.11 final drive.  The best Fox four-speed (which will also fit a
4000) has a 3.45, 2.06, 1.37 and .97 setup, also with a 4.11 final drive.
