The overdrive in the 5 spd and 6spd are the same, according to DC, and that's exactly where I'm at with my fiver.

Ok...with my 2001 5 speed 3500 I thought it was more like 2000 rpm's with the 3.53 gears (or whatever they were.)

Mine is right at 70 mph at 2000 3.73 HO 6 speed- dually. I think the tachs could be off some number maybe mine is off slightly slow and yours is off slightly fast.
