When I had my old 3.0, it was figured my car could go 150 mph.
A nice thought when I drive more in the world of 15 mph.

Not by much...it's the math of the tire dia., and the gears. Not so much aerodynamics, though sans tail, things get VERY twitchy at those speeds. I will confess, thanks to the statute of limitations, of having seen my car's speedo
indicate past 150...but I'm thinking it was more like 145. I was on the rev limiter, 5th gear, at the time. This was long, long ago...back when I was young, dumb, and full of "stuff".
