Top speed in 4th or 5th on a 5 speed ?

I'm curious, since 5th is an OD gear, and you technically put down less power than your car makes.

On a top end run would your top speed be reached in 4th or 5th ?

4th with stock gearing.

With stock rear end gears, you will top out in 4th.. But once you change your gears to like 3.73 or 4.10s it will change to 5th.

hmm, i can only get to about 130ish in 4th and im pretty well done but in fifth it will get about 138 or close to it, it just takes way to long for me to want to run that fast.
