5th gear ratio
#1
#2
#4
#5
Both the 4-speed and the 5-speed are 1:1 ratio in top gear through the transmission.
The numbers being thrown about here are overall ratios, which includes, primary, transmission, and final drives.
But the transmissions themselves are 1:1 in their top gears, whether the top gear is 4th or 5th. In top gear, the power never goes through the countershaft, it comes straight in the mainshaft and goes straight out the final drive gear. Both the 4-speed and the 5-speed transmissions are designed this way.
