42s: 495 rev/mile.
44s: 475 rev/mile.
4.10 times that-
42s: 2030 @ 60 mph
44s: 1950 @ 60 mph.
If I were running a 4BT in a M37 or heavier rig with 44s, I'd look for a DIRECT NP540, not overdrive. Because, 0.82 X 1950 = 1600 rpm at 60, pretty slow. The direct 5spd will give closer gearing and better performance.
