Mike,

So if you have a 1600 rear end 3.9, with a 5-speed trans then you get the 
following?

5-spd with 
1600 Rear end standard :  3.9

1st Gear : 3.117
2nd Gear : 1.958
3rd Gear: 1.382
4th Gear: 1.054
5th Gear: .898

And with smaller than stock wheels, that moves the 5-spd values for 1st, 
2nd, 5th even closer to the stock 4-spd values for 1st, 2nd, and 4th. Very 
interesting!
