Regarding Backtobasics' comment, my Jeep seems to do best around 45 - 55 mph, with only a slight drop up to 60 or down to 40. The TCC locks around 36 - 40 mph. For reference, I've got a 360 (although with a slightly different cam and more advanced timing than his), 46RE auto and 3.73s.

I should clarify that I have the 5 speed manual. 5th at 50-60 is under the happy power band, and it takes more throttle to maintain speed or accelerate. 62-65 is the magic place for my particular application.
