well if your '66 originally came with the 3-speed from the factory, then you already have 3.20s in the rear.Combine those with the T-5 and youll have lovely acceleration from a stop (1st runs out kinda quick  ) and you will noticed a 1000 to 1200 or so RPM drop at 70mph (with my 3-speed, i ran 70mph at abuot 3500-3600rpm in 3rd gear)
with the T-5, I can now run 70mph at 2400-2500rpm in 5th gear  ------------------
