I hit 155 awhile back.

Now I have 4.10 gears and I never corrected the speedo.... so I routinely bury the needle and keep pulling.. No idea how fast its going... probably something like 700mph

I've been up to 125 on some back roads....I shut down because the passenger window started to vibrate and make noise.

Plus I was scared of seeing a cop.

I think I was in 5th gear.

Then I had it to 115 another time.

Now on 5 cylinders, getting up to 110mph makes me think that I'm gonna shoot the dead cylinder through my hood (so I don't even touch 100 anymore).

Forgot to mention in my thread that I only running on 5 now...

Still truckin' along though. Gotta' love Chevy's.

how did you hit 141 in a 3.4liter? must have some mods on that thing.

i hit 140 twice in my 3800
