Question TBirds..Top Speed..With Proper Parts..

Say my car, 95 4.6 v8, stock, 200hp, 265 torque.

If i had Z rated tires, and a more sturdy drivetrain-with the governor or speed limiter removed, what would the power of the engine get these cars up to...??

If i'm cruising at like 75, and then floor it, my car pulls hard, i get to 103 with a good launch, then of coarse it ends :-)

I'm guessing 140..??

I think we know this now, you post it in every thread....

Good luck on 140, a stretch to 130.

I've seen one hit 140 wtih the gov. removed, but he was on a really straight(lomg) road and was running at really high rpms at this point. I do believe he had a performance computer chip(reburn) but I'm not sure. I'd say around 130 with your car stock, but it will probably take you a little while.
