.....which brings up the  question; what seems to be the best all around
rear gearset to use in a Tiger with the 5-speed installed ??    What's the
overdrive ratio with one ?      0.8:1 ??       0.65:1 ??
 ( As  I remember , 3:08's and 3:31's seem real popular choice  with the
toploader  4-speed. )
