I think the 4th in a 4spd and 5th in a 5spd are the same if you have the
corresponding rearend. I know if you put a Ambo rear end in a eldo it will
lower your RPM's at highway speeds. My dad has a Eldo with a 4spd and a
Eldo rearend and that thing was a bullet from red-light to red-light. I am
not sure what the final ratio was but it had to be low. It was a blast to
ride around town

I don't have my books with me but I believe 4th in a 4spd and 5th in a 5
spd are both the same ratio.
