hi dean! dont think you need to change the gearbox bud, unless you got a 5 speed diesel then put that in!

l o butty , l o musha -
NA boxes look alot lower geared , have a shuftie at
http://www.johnmaherracing.co.uk/gearcalc.htm 185/80 14s give you a diameter of near as damn it 26" .
a 3H box will give you 59mph/3k rpm (0.816 5th gear and 4.86 r+p)
various 1.6 NA boxes wil give you 47mph/3k rpm (o.85 4th and 5.83 r+p)
find ya gearbox code and have a play with the figures. If you have the TD box swap it if the predicted speeds make it worth while/
