Sounds like a good plan. The 700R4 is a .70 overdrive in 4th so the 4.10 would drop to about 2.87. That would give you about 2300 rpm at 65 mph with a 27" tire. I think I could live with that. A 3.42 gear would drop it down to about 1900 rpm.

Hope you come home safe and thanks for all you guys are doing over there.
