A 2.87:1 1st from a TKO with a 3.31 gear would still be an overall ratio of 9.5. He's way down there at 8.2.
With a 1:1 5th gear, he's at 2000 rpm at 60, 1800 at 55. If that's what he settles with, then a mild camshaft will be in order.

That would be a nice cruising rpm on the hwy for me. I had a 57 chevy with a 400sb and a wc t5 that would do 60mph at 1500 rpm in 5th |
