Just got the gears in. Haven't had a chance to ride it yet but I'm hoping that it makes the difference I've been looking for. I'll let ya know.

I've been running the 57/63's for a year now and I love them. I'm sure the 56/64's also work well, but I've never felt like my sled was over-geared with the 57/63's. There's only about a 3% difference in ratio between the two, so I'll bet any difference in performance is minimal.

Rode with the new gears today. Much improved:). Don't notice much difference in top speed but now need to get a few hundred more RPM. Went from 7450 down to about 7250. Still much better bottom end. Not KK snap but it's getting closer. Don't think even going 54/66 would be too low. Stock is way too high. Maybe some secondary changes might be next.....:beer;
Thanks Catsled for all your input.
