ipd Overdrive Solenoid Bypass Refresher 200 1992

I've always thought that the '92 wagon revved a bit high in top gear on the highway. As I recall from the last time I drove her, 60mph was about 3K rpm--maybe even more. I recall buying an overdrive solenoid bypass plate for the auto tranny on a previous 240 of ours, and was very pleased with the ease of install and the functionality of the piece.

I just cannot recall whether the revs are high enough to signal that the OD is not functioning properly. So, I'm asking: In your auto trans car, what are you pulling at about 60mph? I'd really like to get her to throttle down, instead of scream, on the highway.

Thanks!
B
