that is why I mentioned why my 4 speed auto redlined at what it did.

the redline might be the same (sometimes redline is determined by the tranny too) but the gearing in the auto tranny is totally different, so this isn't very helpful :-P
I just remembered that I stumbled upon a redline calculator a while ago where you have to put in the exact ratios of your tranny, I'll try to go find it again.
