Re: K5 4speed ratios?
Since I doubt you are still running stock 20" rubber on that Dane 70, what tires are you running, what is their Rev/mile?
Don't make us guess what you have!
Depending on rubber, that 90 hp GRD may not have the power to move it faster with the tires and gears you have.
Why not tell us exactly what the running gear is?

Re: K5 4speed ratios?
driving in 3rd instead of 4th,
running really small wheels/tires,
inaccurate speedometer reading from not compensating speedo drive after swapped out axle,
(drive by a radar sign or use GPS to verify)
mistaken on actual rear axle ratio, (verify axle ratio)
take your pick
or depending on what else you haven't shared could be anything,
