Rev Limiter?

78 SC.

Do these have a rev limiter? If so, what RPM?

Was doing some spirited driving, I usually shift about 6500, but testosterone kicked in and I was over 7k. No cut out.

Just wondering.

Unless replaced, it's in the rotor. The RPM is engraved on it.....

If your rotor was replaced by an inexperienced mechanic you will get a later US car version that has no rev limiter. Euro cars had rotor limiters and US cars had a little black box behind the tach. So.... my guess is you have no rev limiter

PS I don't recommend you go out and test that though...
