What do you want to know about it? It is most certainly true, and Mr. Levinson is on the boards, mostly in the 7 section.

No, if you swap your diff for a shorter one (bigger ratio) your RPMs at a speed will increase when compared to your current setup. It is a very simple calculation to find vehicle speed at a certain RPM, or you can use one of the many calculators available online:
