We will need to know what motor is up front and what modifications have been done and what you will be using it for, rear tyre size would also help.

Here is a link to a 6-speed calculator on Excel. You can open & enter your values, if your tranny has different ratios "unprotect" the file & save to your computer. Change the ratios to match your tranny & you can see speed & RPM's for whatever rear end you care to enter.
I notice the RPM's stop at 3300..You can insert extra rows, Hold & drag the last row down & it will copy to go as high as you like.
