I think I get around 27 to 30K at 70 MPH with OD on.

Greeting Healeyphiles,
     While cruising last night at about 70mph in my  BJ8,  I noticed that
the
rpm's were consistently around 4400 while OD was  engaged. This seems to me
to be significantly higher than usual. What rpm should  one expect at those
speeds and if I am correct and the number is uncommonly  high, what could be
the
cause?
thanks much.
