          No hes making an accurate statement. I plan to make nice easy passes short shifting a 6600rpm.

                7500!!!!! Is a real hard pass. But we dont have the upper valve train to sustain that with the valve springs we have. It will only see above 6600 in 4th gear to run it out the mile.

                      I can do math. 6600 rpms 2.41 gear 1:1 trans 26" tire = 211.829 ;D

                      Dad and I will be there. He wants to change the 3.73 to 3.08 in his mustang. I don't know if I will have a car or not maybe capri or maybe the SC right now neither are ready.

                        One more trip to the dyno and some more "aero" work - we'll be there. Stop over and say hello.
