I believe 20% is right from the ground speeds I've seen in the ads.

A fellow forum member has some of the brochures on his site:

20% looks right for the step-up but I can't quite make out the speeds for the step-down.

if you look at the antique tractor pull guide , ground speed book. Zack Peterson has tire/rpm/grearing charts for wc/wc-rc-high crop/ and sherman under dive. I think it is closser to a rc or high crop rear end. I'm looking for one for my WC  puller myself.
