    That's something for the QC owners to get back to you on (Wazzsup? Jake?).

    Gear ratios for the beefed-up 48RE automatic in the QC's are:
    - 1st = 2.45:1
    - 2nd = 1.45:1
    - 3rd = 1.00:1
    - 4th = 0.69:1
    - REV = 2.20:1

    Gear ratios for the Tremec T-56 6-speed found in the RC's are:

    - 1st = 2.66:1
    - 2nd = 1.78:1
    - 3rd = 1.30:1
    - 4th = 1.00:1
    - 5th = 0.74:1
    - 6th = 0.50:1
    - REV = 2.90:1

    That's about all I can get ya right now without talking to Tom or Jake.

    Larry- cool calculator, but I didn't see the 48RE transmission in their listing.
    Did I miss something?

    4th in a 48RE is 0.69:1.
    I used 0.71:1 as a gear ratio and got 1963.23 RPM's @ 65mph.
    Not exact, but pretty close.
