My Mach with a 5spd makes peak power at just under 6100 rpm.As for gears the 5spds do come with 3.55 gears,the autos might have 3.27's like most of ford auto's.Dont quote me,lol.

RE: Manual Mach 1 vs Auto Mach 1
Machs have a nice broad powerband, so the autos are still getting the goods delivered at their redline. 
But that slight difference in weight (not sure what it is but it's not a whole heck of a lot) and the smaller amount of time it spends at peak power vs the 5spd explains the difference in e.t. and trap speed.
