If anyone is interested, I have two Excel spreadsheets that calculate
speeds at all rpms for all gears and display them graphically.  One
is for a non-OD box, and the other is for an OD box.  You need to
input all the gear ratios and the tire diameter and it gives you all
the rest.  Anyone who wants it, please let me know (but it will be
sometime next week before I get it to you since I'm heading off
to Summit Point this weekend).
