Engine RPM at Highway speeds?
- Thread starter Tincup
- Start date
2150 (O/D, converter locked)
In other words, as slow as it's going to turn at 70 mph.

I know you got an answer already Tincup but is a 6-speed swap out of the realm of possibilities? Lower RPM and turns the QC into much more of a beast

Personally I would only do that if you had some good power adders. Otherwise you'll increase the heavy pig feel
If you want to greatly reduce that heavy pig feel, buy a good converter it makes a world of difference for general driving around.
2150 (or so) isn't a lot of rpm for a performance-style camshaft so if you have one and are considering slowing your engine down, throttle response and gas mileage can take a hit.
It depends on how big a cam and how much you want to slow it down and/or if you care about that stuff.
Cheers and Merry Christmas (or whatever you prefer for holiday greetings)
