Governer?

My friend who owns a ricer seems to think my 94 camaro Z28 has a governer on it, i haven't exceeded more than 100 mph yet, but there's no way it has a damn governer. Just wondering if anyone knows? Oh and its a 6 speed if that matters.

There is a speed govener that goverens the car to the speed rating of the tires that came with the car. Just need to get a chip

Actually the first part is true about the tires but the 94 + don't have a removable prom they have a erasable eprom and You need to have it programmed out but its easily done with a programmer or tuning with a cable through www.pcmforless.com or www.madz28.com

well i do have a chip... well its called Venom 400 but i dunno if that would be the right chip to let me go as fast as i want

That is a module not a chip because its a exterior devise and it does not allow you to put your own specific info , So like I said you would need to have it programmed out in either a tune or programmer.

ok thanx for the info FormulaLT1. I also was gonna ask what kind of bolt ons would be the best for my car. I already have: flowmaster exhaust, cold air intake and the Venom 400 control module. I am also about to gutt my cat and get 17s all around with possibly 315s on the back and if not 275/45 all around. I have 127000 miles on it now so i expect i'll have to rebuild in not too long so i'll wait for the internal goodies until then, but for now lookin for bolt ons.

You know I would love to answer your question here but I think it would be a better Idea. To make a new thread about that subject plus you will probably get more subject related advise than people expecting to answer a question about a governor also you might just want to do a search on the forum as there have been about a thousand bolt on LT1 threads

what do the camaros cut out at then? ive done over 155 with my 95 z28 and havent hit a cutout yet

then you don't have one

My friend who owns a ricer isn't my friend anymore.

in 93 and up the only cars that came with limiters were the sixers, cause they didnt come with z-rated tires...

no, my last 94 cut out at 131, the one i have now has hit 145 without a gov

Do you think my 84Z would have a governer? I havn't tested it yet and the gauge only gos up to 140km/h and i think thats about 80 - 85 miles. Its the stock speedo

i dont think they had any restrictions back then

So what is the limiter set on a 94? I'm putting 94 guts in the 69 and its getting pretty steep gears and i dont wanna top out at 90 lol

all depends what the 94 had in it and what tires it came with from the factory....you cant always reprogram it if it cuts out anyway
