would that be longer or shorter than a std box?
According to the original road test data, the 2wd Sapphire ( I presume you meant that ) had a final drive of 3.64.
1st was 2.95, 2nd 1.94,3rd 1.34, 4th 1.00 and 5th 0.8
So with your box your 5th gear will be turning the engine at fewer revs for a given speed
