My peak effecienCy is above 2k rpms, below that the car struggles to make power effeciently. With a light foot I try to keep the car above 2k by shifting at 2700 in first then progressively lower to get into 5th where the engine is at overdrive
First big modification would be to get low rolling resistance tires.
Second mod would be a vacuum gauge.
Those are what works for me
