Would make no difference, its the final drive that i'd need to change if I wanted to go faster. The only 5 speeds i'd consider putting in it, KAD or Jack Knight have a 1:1 5th gear, just like 4th.

Or I could just wind the rev limiter up a bit, but its pretty frightening pulling 8500rpm in top gear......

its a jack knight dog gear set on a 3.9fd.

The tell tale on the rev counter says i've actually pulled 8800, I think my rev limiter has packed in.

My brothers kad mini will pull 140mph, but he has 6 gears and more power and revs to 9200rpm.
