hate to brake it to you, but i would be in 5th. You cant really take that to heart in this discussion thgough, between the 4.11's and the higher gear ratio's, im looking at 2300rpm at 45(in fifth), But it definetly is feasable at 45, i just prefeer to get the best gas mialge you can. And the TQ with this engine and the 5 speed is glorious, i dont even use first gear most of the time!

p.s. lemme check what 4th is at 45 when i get home

Thanks for the answer Phil, and the honesty.

I had forgotten you were using a lower diff. If you still used the standard, about 3.89 if memory serves, you would be at 1700-1800 rpm, and not as ready to pull away. Not a true or fair comparison really.

Still like to hear how the 4.44 works with the auto.
