5150 is where it seems to like it. The operators manual concurs.

David,
Where specifically does it say that? I can't find that in owner's,
installation or maintenance manuals.

Look in Chapter 10 - Operating instructions. I have revision 3, July 01/2004. Look
specifically at page 10-7 and 10-8 at the power curves and engine power settings
table.
Max cruise power = 5500
75% power = 5000
The above figures are probably based on a standard day. Power decreases with altitude
or decrease in density altitude, so it would make sense that you would
increase RPM a little at altitude to maintain the same sea-level power. Also,
the power curve reveals that maximum torque is at about 5150 RPM, which is the
happy medium between power and economy.
At some point, you begin to split hairs.
