NO Kris, It's not what your thinking get your mind out of the gutter JK. What rpm do people with the ZF6 rev at 70mph, 65 mph ect... Also include rear-end ratio, and engine. Thanks

You also need to know tire diameter, and if they have updated the PCM for tire size if you really want to compare these correctly.

Yea your right Beerstalker. I think a better question is what is the ratio of the overdrive gear in the ZF6? It sounds like it's almost the same as the 4r100 .72 ish if I remember. I knw that it has the granny gear, but I would hope that the od is a little taller as well.

I have an early 99 CC with 7.3 PSD. I have the stock tire size - 265-75 R16, and 3.73 rear end. 6 spd ZF6, I run about 2200 at 70 MPH. 2000 RPM gives me 65 exactly by my GPS.

I knew the 4r100 was .72:1 for OD, but I thought the ZF6 was .77 or .76:1 for OD. It was .77:1 for the ZF5.
