Just ordered a tall Guard 5th gear .667

I have given it a lot of thought as to whether to get the Ring and Pinion also (Albins 3.1). The spread of gained MPH and lower RPM was more pronounced in the higher RPM/MPH range. My goal was to lower rpm in the comfort area for cruising and the tall 5th seemed to be the answer. If money was not an issue I would have done both. For now just a tall 5th.

I also found a really nice online gear calculator:
