Back when I still had the 3.42's I had 5th gear up to 6500 RPM. The gear calculater says 196. I don't know if it actually was that fast, but I'm pretty confident it was well over 180.

no. unless a code was set while you were going that fast, then the speed and engine rpm would be stored in the freeze frame data.

A good buddy of mine back in IN has one. Together we have changed up a lot including a new fuel system and a single Turbo as well. Those things are monsters! Most hardcore F-body guys will hate me for this, but I am currently saving for one.

hit 140 on rt17 in NC outside of cherry point. Long, flat 4 lane highway and it was a ghostly empty. Slowed down cuz it started curving a little and i was afraid i wasn't going to be able to spot a cop in time. Also had the t-tops off and the windows down, couldn't hear anything but the wind it was crazy.

Just did the calculator thing and i was actually doing 150
