I should be getting great MPG with a 4.63 ring and pinion than :sarcasm:

with the stock ring and pinion ( 3.08? ) I already am at like 3k going 60-65 ( in 5th )

I need a 6th gear to save gas

You have it backwards (on purpose?).

higher number = more engine revs to turn the wheel one time.

Stock final drive ratio is 4.08:1

number if gears isn't relevant to engine revs - it's the drive ratios of those gears.

4th gear is almost always 1:1.
