I did some searching on this topic and didn't come up with much. I tried to find Brad's gear / speed chart but the links to it all seem broken. Basically I'm looking for some ideas on what gears I can run in the 901 that would be a better match with the 3.0. I would like to run it as a 5 speed so Ideally I'd like a first that is taller than stock and a 2nd that is taller than stock, maybe tall enough to take me to 60 mph at 6500 rpms.

Yup, much easier and less $$ to do a 4 speed box.
