By way of comparison, the Toyota W58 fifth gear is .76 and the W59 is =
.81. You can move the position of the shift towers on these =
transmissions to come out within 1/2=E2=80=9D of a Healey center-shift =
stick. But, you cannot change the fifth gear to change the ratio. Fifth =
gear is part of a complete different set of gears.=20
