I think you made a math goof. With a non-OD trans like the sm465, you'll be turning 3200 at 65 with those gears and tires. If you have a .75:1 overdrive, like in a 4l80e, you'll bring your rpm down to 2400 at 65.
If the OP intends to run a sm465 long term without installing a OD unit, I'd advise going with 4.11 gears.
