The GM Tremec TR6060 6-Speed (2010–15 Camaro SS, per GM) is a six-speed manual gearbox.
First gear is 3.01:1 and 6th is 0.57:1. Divide one by the other and the overall spread is 5.28:1. That is a wide spread: a short first to get the car moving and a tall top to bring cruise revs down.
6th is an overdrive at 0.57:1: the output shaft turns faster than the input shaft. Two of the six gears are overdrives. 4th is direct drive at 1.00:1.
The biggest step is 5th to 6th, where the ratio drops 32%. The smallest is 4th to 5th at 16%. On each upshift the revs drop by the same percentage as the ratio.
The final drive lives in a separate diff, so the speed table shows three common ratios: 3.42, 3.73 and 4.10. With a 3.73 final drive and 225/45R17 tyres, 6th at 6,000 rpm works out at 337 km/h (210 mph), and first runs out at 64 km/h (40 mph). That is how tall the gear is, not a top speed. Drag and power decide that. At 70 mph in 6th the engine turns about 2,000 rpm.

Road speed at 6,000 rpm
Road speed at 6,000 rpm on a 225/45R17 tyre (1.993 m rolling circumference), by final drive. No slip, no drivetrain losses.
Results are theoretical: stock ratio specs, your inputs, no drivetrain losses. Verify with your drivetrain supplier before spending real money.
Swapping the engine as well? StandaloneHQ counts the inputs and outputs the new engine needs and shortlists the wire-in ECUs that fit: ECU Pinout Planner.
BoxSelector crunches gear ratios, tyre sizes, and RPM figures to give you useful speed and cruise data for your build. The results are theoretical, based on stock ratio specs and your inputs, and assume perfect mechanical conditions, zero drivetrain losses, and a world without speed bumps, traction limits, or your right foot getting sweaty. Real-world results will vary. Probably a lot for automatics.
Don't run a build off this tool alone.
Use it to narrow your options, start a conversation with your builder, and stop arguing on forums... then go talk to someone who can actually look at your car.
We're not liable for your decisions.
If you fit a TH400 and wonder why there's no 5th gear, that's on you. BoxSelector and its author accept no responsibility for mechanical failures, unsuitable gearbox choices, blown differentials, bent input shafts, voided warranties, shed fires, or any other consequences arising from using this tool. You're a grown adult building a car. Act like it.
Gear ratios may have changed, and manufacturers love to quietly update things.
We've done our best to source accurate ratio data from factory specs and reputable technical references. Some ratios (particularly on production variants with running changes) may differ from the figures listed here. Always verify critical specs against your actual unit or a current manufacturer source before committing to anything expensive.

The "buy me a drink" button is a voluntary tip, but nothing is paywalled, and nothing changes if you don't use it. If you do, thank you. My 10mm socket fund appreciates it.
