37FamilyBowTie,

Please let me know what you come up with! I have owned several vehicles and have used this solution many times. Many old trucks could pull a house over, but going down the highway, the motor sounded like a sewing machine run amuck! You may not get to a "perfect" effective ratio, but you should be able to achieve a
happy medium! Also be sure to figure out your correct M.P.H. as,
Example: 50 m.p.h. showing on speedometer may actually be 57 m.p.h. actual traveling speed! Make a mentle note to remember or change speedometer gear to correct. Still way cheaper and easier than changing rearend, transmission, etc. Good Luck!
