with the 5.0 fd you should finish somewhere in 4th but i am not certain what rpm. should be fairly high up though to make use of the power band
so it depends on the power band
also with a higher fd, as can be seen by the graphs, you reach up in your powerband/speed much faster
Totally true, I experienced myself a couple of passes using 4th gear @ 7000-7500rpm driving a b13-200whp VE...also tested the same engine on identical car using an SE-R stock FD and results were way to different, around 3rd gear @ 6000-6800rpm.
