Cobey,
I thought the same as you about 5 speeds, but when I went to the Kirkham I was forced to look at toploaders. I ran the gearing and the spread is actually better (IMHO) than a TKO. That's assuming you get to pick the rear end ratio (I'm going 3.23). The short first gear of the Tremec makes it essentially a 4 speed. I will bring my graphs to the next grease-up so you can see a comparison.
