An overdrive or a five speed with overdrive fifth gear would be options.
You may be going about 20% faster than indicated if you didn't change the speedometer gears in your transmission. | | |

I just put one in my 55 & love it. The 5 th gear is o-drive & you can,t even hear the engine running. There is lot,s of info in tech. section & in these posts.
