Senator 3/0 - If it's black 2.25:1. if red or maroon 4:1

Max drag will depend on the condition of the reel and the drag washers. The "book" spec is a nice guidleine, but if it really matters to you, you should check each reel on an accurate scale with the line and rod you will be using.

If you have vintage Penn reels this link should be at the top of your "Favorites": Penn Reel Specifications Page (http://store.scottsbt.com/Penn-Reel-Specifications-W32C1.aspx#conv)
