Forgot to mention - 757 max alt is typically 3500' above optimum. You can check it by putting FL420 for a crz altitude on the crz page and then clearing the 'check cruise altitude' prompt that appears. FMC will shortly display max altitude on the scratch pad (typing line - 6L).

With winglets it should be around a 2000-2500' difference between opt alt and max alt.
