Why do you persist in saying the "short gears" couldn't reach 165?

Yes, and the story has also wandered from "multiple transmissions" back to a factory short 1-4 + stock 5th from new. I really doubt that it has had several transmissions w/ unknown gears in it. Moot point anyways, stock 5th + stock bodied targa + "special" stock 2.4S motor does not = 165 mph. Not even close.
If he took it to some endless highway in the desert w/ a good GPS or we used a radar gun, I would put my $$ on ~140 mph.
