It depends on your final ratio but from memory about 3500rpm for a 3.7 final ratio.

When my 85 auto touring wagon was totally standard cruising at the speed limit saw right on 4000rpm. Speed limit in SA is 110km/h, so I would imagine the RPM at 100km/h would be just a little less than the above.

Not easily.try chucking 27" tyres on, dropped my tourer to just on 3000 rpm at 100 kph.
