What should my rpm be at 70 mph?
Installed an SE 6-spd. Now at 70 mph I am at about 2,550 or 2,600 rpm. At 3,000 I am closer to 80 mph. Like Grillfish said above, I like to keep my rpms around 2,500 rpm when running a constant speed. So if I am tooling around town, I will find the gear that gives that to me.

It is an automatic and shifting is very hard. It doesn’t seem to shift over second gear. It occasionally shifts into third gear within a mile of driving, but after that, it cannot shift over second gear. Also, when this issue starts happening, even though I am driving at very low speeds from 25-35 mph, the RPM increases to around 2800.
