you're looking at removing your transmission, and having it rebuilt with a different gear where 5th used to be.
It's a process probably best left to a tranny shop.

Yea.. I'm not serious about racing my car...just want a larger 5th gear so I don't wear out the engine while driving on freeways (and a higher top speed would be nice). Any idea as to about how much this would cost?

that'll make a graph to show what tire sizes will do when u change them.
it says
195/50-15's at 4000rpms will be at 81mph
195/60-15 at 4000rpms will be at 83mph.
im sure u can mess around with it a little more to make it better.
it'll also mess with the mileage on the odometer...
