You don't want a 0.2:1 over drive.
Unless you are running a really weird tire size and rear diff ratio that doesn't make any sense.
Really the most over drive you will find useful would be some where around .4 or .5 to 1 with normal diff gears and tire size.
If the engine runs too slowly it bogs down, doesn't make enough power, the internal vibrations hammer away at the connecting rod bearings until the engine fails.
