Bit of a necro, but I was watching a Smoking Tire segment where the car being driven was a heavily modified Honda where the final two or three gears were selected from different models of Honda/Acura to improve highway cruising after going with an aggressive final drive.

Has anyone done something similar so that once changing to a 4.56 or 4.88 a non-stock 5th and 6th gear is used so that revs between 60-70 are back at stock or, even better, better than stock? It would be great to be cruising at highway speeds and not hovering around 3K (prior to final drive swap).
